Feed Description: James Robertson comments on Cincom Smalltalk, the Smalltalk development community, and IT trends and issues in general.
Greg Reinacker points out a simple way to keep up with what people are saying about your product - subscribe to a Feedster search feed on your product! BottomFeeder has supported Feedster for quite some time now - I subscribe to a search feed on Bf so that I can see what is being said about it.
At the moment, this only captures a small part of the commentary on a product (probably more for a news aggregator, but that's a passing thing). Over time, as more and more analysts and industry authors start providing syndicated content, that'll change. This looks like it could be the start of a route around/beyond the (rather expensive) analyst firms - with the advantage of giving you actual feedback from real users who aren't being actively solicited for their opinions...
