Today Alltop announced version 3.0. Alltop is an RSS aggregating site, “like a digital news rack” which organizes sites according to topics. There are several interesting topics, and a couple of months ago Guy Kawasaki was good enough to add one for Marketing Research here http://market-research.alltop.com/
The primary feature of version 3.0 is the ability for people to create custom collections of Alltop feeds (MyAlltop). Every custom MyAlltop collection is a public page and can therefore be shared.
One ramification of this is that people can grab “vanity” accounts like their names, companies, and products. For instance I just grabbed one for the LinkedIn Next Generation Market Research Group on LinkedIn I manage and set up a couple of feeds here http://my.alltop.com/NextGenMarketResearch
To create your MyAlltop page, go to this page and click on “create an account”: http://my.alltop.com/
As you surf around Alltop you simply hit the blus sign for any feeds you want to add to your personal Alltop. You may want to start at Market-research.alltop.com? One of the interesting articles I found today on Alltop was this one on the trend of decreased use of off-shoring in market research, something which I have been noticing in our research on research as well.
You can create as many accounts as you like, for example, one for personal use and one for your site.
