A New Kind of Social Networking Search/Discovery Tool
Here we get an exclusive first look at Semantinet, which is a tool that’ll help you get the information you care about out of your social networking tools and feeds. Founder Tai Keinan demonstrates Semantinet and explains why it’s important as an adjunct to feeds, social event sites, microblogging tools like Twitter and Pownce, and aggregation services like FriendFeed. This was filmed in Tel Aviv, Israel, as part of our tour to discover what’s happening in the tech world in Israel. Much more to come from Israel soon.

Good interview, good luck to Semantinet!
Keep us updated with the release...
is it possible to make a comment plugin that can have in wordpress that instead of subscribing to a post comment it gives the option to post it to your twitter account. but not all comments just the ones you make on that blog. I have notice that not just a post has valid information but comments on a subject gives more to the post and it would make it easier to find post that relate to what you are looking for and the comments about what you are looking for.
A while back I posted an idea on my blog for a blog widget or browser plug-in that displays "People mentioned in this blog post or page". Kind of like with newspapers and magazine articles where you get to see pictures of some of the people referenced in an article, but of course much richer on the web with profiles, social activity etc. I can see Semantinet being capable of offering this sort of tool as a sidebar or something. Tal, if you are reading, please do this next.
That's great! I can use this. Just what I was looking for. I love this website! You got a bookmark from me!

Wow, great tool. Cool things are coming from the “Silicon Wadi”! keep us posted on their progress Robert.
Robert,
This was yet another amazing interview, with an amazing product. Surely checking this out!
Interesting tool, the semantic web is going to take off this year it seems.
This looks very good.
Wow the presentation of the skill set is very impressive indeed. I personally have met Tal and found him to be one of the most skilled, motivated and inspiring people that I've come by in a long time. I wish the whole Semantinet team, all of which I've had the pleasure to have met and work with in the past all the best. This is really impressive!
Thanks Robert! I'm impressed with Tal's demo of Semantinet's first cool tool Keybitz. You said it: it does look like a must-have adjunct to social networking sites, social event sites, feeds and microblogging tools, services like FriendFeed...Can't wait.
great clip, there is definitely a future for anyone interested in creating a simple way to provide in a same spot every piece of info that our friends are leaving all over the net
wow...this would be a great help. When will it be available?
looks amazing
can't wait...
good luck
