    Prediction: GOOG will buy this or something very similar - this is the evolution of Search - this is "Find"

    what problem does really solve?

    It seems to be rather susceptible to spam - half the 'inner circle' of popular sites being browsed at the moment are apparently "Bangin' Becky"...

    HaHa, they made sure the adult websites are by default hidden., In a single day, the power of blogs.

    Ah, I expect they realized the problem as soon as they went live. Good to see they've fixed it.

    why is the address "Swarmthe.com" and not swarm.com

    that spells doom...how are people going to tell their friends?

    I wonder how long I have to wait to get all the linking lines between the individual pages. It looks like a neat graphical interface for finding new websites, or reaffirming stalwarts. It also looks like people need to install a plugin for this to work more effectively..

    What's the business model?

    Don't forget to close out the window when you are done looking at swarm. If you leave it open like I did by accident for several hours it will grind your computer to a halt.

    "What does that mean? It means sites like MySpace, Facebook, Friendster, hi5, Piczo, Bebo and YouTube."

    It's nice but only for those of us who are looking for online trends, I would prefer something simple such as a service that let me see at all times where my friends are so i can either join them and share my opinion to their demand or vice versa.
