This NewScientist article named
"Software agents give out PR advice"
http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn7210describes a new software which
gathers information about individual
persons and companies. It is a software
that can "automatically gauge the tone
of any electronic document".
You could certainly use user agents to filter
RSS feeds in order to create new, personalized
RSS feeds, similar to an automatically generated
news group (see
http://groups.yahoo.com/ ,
http://groups.msn.com/ or
http://groups.google.com/).
Do you think it makes sense to filter
RSS feeds with intelligent agents and
agent technologies ?
