Greg Linden, the founder of news aggregation service Findory is shutting down the service on November 1, 2007, according to a blog post on his personal blog. It is a shame!
Findory was riding the “information personalization” trend that is only going to gain importance in coming years. The excessive amount of content is making discovery of information a challenge. Findory shutdown was long time coming. Linden had announced in January 2007 that it was time to let Findory go. I am surprised it took so long.
“Though it will not be Findory doing so, I continue to believe that the future will be personalized,” Linden writes as the epitaph of his start-up. Good luck Greg!
