BlogScope is a search engine for the blogosphere with advanced analysis and visualization technology.[1][2] BlogScope is outcome of an ongoing research project at the University of Toronto.[3] As of Apr 2009, the system is indexing over 725 million blog posts.
The BlogScope project has led to creation of Sysomos, a Toronto-based social media analytics company founded by Nilesh Bansal and Nick Koudas. Sysomos develops two products, Media Analysis Platform (MAP) and Heartbeat, based on the intellectual property created by the BlogScope project. The company was acquired by Marketwire in July 2010. BlogScope continues to exist as a research project at the university independent of the company.
