Source Discovery to extend who and what you track

The Source Discovery feature of Digimind helps you to identify and track RSS feeds and web pages.  In this way you can easily extend the extent of your CI watch, while making sure the information sources are still pertinent to your objectives.

Source Discovery is useful while setting up a CI project and then also as part of regular maintenance:

• Set up

At the start of a CI project Source Discovery can quickly identify sources you should be tracking, allowing you to quickly go from a limited initial understanding of a theme to a deeper more precise knowledge.

• Maintenance

After a CI project has been running for a while, it is useful to check for new sources in order to keep abreast of changes in the webosphere and then track emerging blogs, trade magazines and other publications.
