Congrats to my friend Alan Warms of freshly started Buzztracker on their sale to Yahoo .

I have written about the service often which is like a Techmeme for thousands of topics.

Yahoo scopped it up and with their page views, the service should get lot’s of traction. Things move so fast in this space and it will be interesting to see how the ‘MEME’ landscape looks 12 months out.

I met Alan through Fred Wilson and we became fast friends and he also invested in Wallstrip . Yahoo gets a smart tech and news guy to help build out the platform further.
