Abstract

Information transfers through web has plays a significant role in the utilization of its resources. The major parts that involve in information transfer recently are through sharing and publishing weblogs.

Continue with an explanation on the ambiguity problem among the weblogs. Next, identify if any RSS aggregator comes with a solution. Besides reviewing the available techniques on relevancy measurement, an experiment is performed to test if user assisting in keyword search able to improve the aggregated results to a more relevant of collection. Subsequently, the result concluded a satisfactory list of weblogs collected after benchmarking the list of weblogs collected from Feed Demon. Paper ends with the future works.
