All together now: Web-based event locator launches

United States – Following the right people and the right events on microblogging site Twitter, and related applications, can be a little tricky sometimes. But help is on its way, in the form of a simple aggregation tool that welds various feeds together in one place, giving users the low-down on events as they happen.

almost.at, the new tool from iPhone application developer David Cann, brings together comments, photos and blog posts about a particular topic as they are published online, creating a constantly updated – and updating – stream of live information. At first glance, the barrage of comments and photos may seem baffling, but almost.at proves to be a useful tool in channelling live information about events as they unfold.

Like shopping website Snipi, almost.at demonstrates that the best convergence applications enable savvy web users to keep track of the many links and leads on the internet.
