A lot has happened since my last blog post.  I’m back in school finishing up my degree in Information Systems and just three weeks ago my first son was born.  Not only has my personal life been pretty busy, but also my professional life.  The former Provo Labs Solutions is now officially 42co.  42co had a huge launch of tagjungle last week.  This is 42co’s premiere product right now.

TagJungle is the first minimalist approach to online searching.  TagJungle currently focuses on the blogosphere and will make the blogosphere more informative and useful.  As of now, it is very difficult to make use of the blogosphere and to find articles you are really interested in reading.  I searched in some of today’s top blog search engines and mainly found splogs.  On the first page, maybe I found one article I was interested in reading.

TagJungle uses a relevancy algorithm to determine how relevant a specific blog post is to a given keyword.  The user can set the relevancy level, the higher levels producing fewer, but richer results.  Instead of receiving millions of results, most of which only mention your keyword, you receive 30 results, all of which are highly relevant to the topic of your choice.

TagJungle has already been privately launched.  You can get the URL by going to TagJungle.com and signing up.  We hope to make our public launch soon.
