Crosspollinate.org - All The Trends On The Social Web

How do you stay in the loop when it comes to the latest news that are shared on the Social Web? You obviously resort to an aggregator of the many that are doing the rounds, of which Crosspollinate is a good exponent.

Basically, this site will let you choose a key term and watch the conversations on the Social Web connected to it unfurl right in front of your eyes.

In order to use the site (as opposed to merely watching on as the talk related to any of the main keywords takes place) you must sign in via Facebook Connect. It is worth pointing out that a mobile-friendly version is available, too. And an upcoming pro version is forthcoming. You can sign up for it by following the link that is displayed on the main page.

All in all, yet another service for keeping abreast of what is being said online about any topic or issue that is making waves. In the end, choosing it over any other of its (very close) competitors might just boil down to a matter of personal tastes.

“Crosspolliante is a simple service for monitoring and sharing stuff you like across the real-time web.”

It is fast and supple, but so are its main competitors.

Will other ways of logging in besides using Facebook Connect be ever offered?
