Information About

Amphetarate




AmphetaRate was originally designed for the web-based RSS Reader AmphetaDesk , but now the preferred reader is the Java -based RSSOwl . On June 6 , 2004 , the developers announced that users could rate articles in the personalized feed from any aggregator. However, rating articles in any feed is limited to RSSOwl. There is a documented API explaining how to add this functionality to other RSS readers.

AmphetaRate will search for articles with keywords determined by the aforementioned Bayesian analysis. Popular BlogDex articles are added to AmphetaRate with corresponding ratings. By entering the URL of a news feed, users and non-users can check statistics about rating in that news feed.

As of August 4 , 2004 , AmphetaRate has 1100 users and usually less than 100 articles are rated each day. AmphetaRate is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
