What kind of skills to program a Techmeme site?

Hey Pros,

I need some information on how Gave Rivera managed to pull this out, Techmeme.com

I think he get all his sources from the top blogs on the net, and just use some kind of RSS and display it on his website. no?

Please evaluate, I need to learn this stuff for my domains

drupal memetracker module

Try the drupal module Memetracker. http://drupal.org/project/memetracker

From the site -
"Memetracker seeks to emulate the functionality of successful commercial memetrackers such as Techmeme, Polymeme, Google News, Tailrank, and Megite. It will be an open-source implementation of memetracking technology that can be easily plugged into Drupal-based community sites."

Hope this helps,
