I already have your weighting suggestion built in, but for now it is turned off because the spam system is learning the characteristics of spam messages. Although overall the spam system is still quite rudimentary, there are quite a few systems that I have built into Twitturly prevent spamming of the system. I have user blacklists, site blacklists, comment interpretation, discounting duplicate comments from multiple people, single tweet counting from the same user and I recently added bayesian learning (although the bayesian filter is off while learning). I also have a few more things that I will be releasing soon dealing with spam, but I will not say so that people don’t know what they are.

I am not sure yet what a good freshness setting would be, whether it is just 7 days or 30 days or something else. But I will play with it and figure out a good setting so that Twitturly always has a good list of the most recently talked about.

@Jeff Doak and @kuldeep There are already RSS feeds on Twitturly. You did not need to create a dapper feed, but thanks anyways.

@Nick Halstead Change the language filtering to “Unknown” and you can see just the images, audio, movies, etc.

@Matt (#20) I will look into how this can be done and if feasible, maybe I will do it.

You can do a little more filtering based off ‘Reach’ (which is a cumulative sum of how many timelines the post reached – or total number of followers for all that posted).

The original focus of the site was to allow people to easily track what was being said about sites on twitter by providing RSS feeds of comments and stats about each site. But as I started sorting through the total data I saw that it could easily be used to show popular items per day.

Obviously battling spam has been hard, but by filtering using ‘Reach’ you can drop off a lot of it right out of the gate.

yup… even with those links tweetmeme still reeks like wet dog ass. not to mention, if your list is not providing useful results on today why would anyone care what it looked like on a different day? Mike posted about twitt(url)y not tweetmeme (be glad the service was even linked to in the post… a simple “Thank You for the link!” should have sufficed)… you’re really coming off as a spammer. (Come to think of it, you spam the whole web with your shit, too… when someone posts about another service, just let it be… don’t rush into every single blog post and spam everyone… you do it all the time and it’s annoying. god help the poor people who work on your team… they must hate your routine as it makes them (vis-a-vis your products) look like whiny complainers who can’t stomach a little competition.) So god, just realx a little and let some other people play in “your” sandbox, too. You big meany. hehehe. (Just kidding about the meany part, of course. The spammer part? Not kidding so much.)

We also have a river of news –
