The Techstars stars - madKast and Filtrbox.com
By Vivek | July 27th, 2007 at 03:08 pm ET
Season for Techstars incubator startups to come to life is up. To start with, let’s checkout couple of them-
madKast: Small but helpful mashup that makes it easy to share blog posts with your buddies. Once a blog owner installs the widget code, an icon appears next to each post title. Clicking on that results in a popup window from where you can easily email or txt message the URL for the post. Besides that, the app also makes it easy to bookmark the post on del.icio.us and likes. However the pain is that while bookmarking, you are still redirected to the respective site. I think enough sample code is lying around for the related APIs to deliver a better mashup.
Filtrbox.com: The Colorado based startup is looking to solve the problem of news overflow. Don’t have more details than that. They are looking to launch sometime soon.

Thanks for the mention. Yup, we (Filtrbox) are building a very cool content monitoring tool that covers both blogs and mainstream news. We are still in development but stay tuned for more info from us as we get closer to launch.
