Brian Balfour recently emailed me via a mutual acquaintance I met at the last Boston WebInnovator event. Turns out Brian works for Zoominfo, a site I have used frequently to search for people and business information, especially for linking to from blog entries.
Brian wrote about the new version of Zoominfo on his blog, Social Degree.
ClaimID is now officially Justouttabeta. Congrats to Fred and Terrell, who I got to meet at Identity Mashup last week.
It’s quite clear that microformats for claiming content are starting to come together, and ClaimID is smart to integrate with OpenID, MicroID and keeping an open mind towards working with other initiatives that strengthen and increase the value of microformat-based data aggregation.
ZoomInfo is a summarization search engine which approaches content aggregation with a crawl-based system. As I mentioned to Fred last week, ZoomInfo would be a great partner for ClaimID. I’ll even link to the Partner page to make it easier.
I’m curious about what people think about Technorati’s Microformats Search. Do you think it’s a good idea for Technorati to support ClaimID as well?
