A team of 10 skilled people is working on a little service around Open Filter from Peers. Open Filter concentrates on creating options for end-users to use their meta-data to do more on the net. In other words, your data is free to move with you. A bit of a dataportability kind of thing. Besides porting data, they focus on using the data to establish interesting relations. Check out their LinkedIN bookmark example (note: this is created before the API release of LinkedIN).

Today we’ve been working on Frits.me (name is because we still had that domainname, but also because we liked it).

Frits.me connects Hyves and Twitter via Oauth to help you find interesting people on Twitter based on your Hyves information. For now this will be done on a few datasets. We pull the data and connect it to our (still) little database of Twitter people. At the moment the match is made via context but in the feature this will be done with Open Filter. When more people start to use the service there will be more relations available so we can create co-relations and be more accurate.
