Even though we weren't included (yet ;) ), we've really enjoyed reading your findings and analyses. The source of a site can't be 100% automated for top-quality information. Especially for clients that are monitoring in several countries and languages, like you point out, they need to have specific, clean data to work with so there needs to be a manual check to make sure that all of the sources in our index are attributed to the correct source country. Best wishes for your SM monitoring breakfast :) Michelle @Synthesio Great series, James.

At Sysomos, we spider and index information provided by people within their profiles as we believe this is a far more accurate method than techniques such as IP addresses, which can produce wrong results because they're based on where servers are located rather than where people are located. cheers, Mark Mark Evans Director of Communcations Sysomos Inc. James,
