Lately, quite a few TV channels - like CNN - have replaced their man-on-the-street interviews with the cheaper solution of just doing a Twitter search and displaying the results on TV. Curatorr's mission is to help these media companies make the process of finding tweets to put on air even easier. Developed by Wiredset, the company behind Trendrr, Curatorr gives media companies, brands and publishers an easy way to find tweets and put the best of them on air.

In our quest to provide comprehensive analysis of tech industry trends, most technology bloggers have become statistics junkies. To see what's popular we often rely on a bevy of metrics -- Google Trends, Technorati posts, Nielsen Buzzmetrics, Compete stats, Facebook friends, etc. The list goes on and on. But comparing those statistics and trying to grok a trend isn't always an easy task. A new site called Trendrr is aiming to make that task easier by allowing users to manipulate a growing number of publicly available data sets.
