Putting blogs to work

Collective Intellect has a goal: <A HREF="http://news.zdnet.com/2100-9588_22-6128340.html?tag=nl.r23660">Make bloggers work for The Man.</A> The company has created a service that combs through thousands of blogs, news sites, chat rooms, and other Web sites every day and then surfaces rumors and news reports that might be of interest to stock traders or corporate public-relations executives. Start-ups like Monitor 110 provide similar services. The idea is to give traders back the early and easy access to critical data that they used to have when this information came through many fewer channels.
