Toluu for real estate bloggers?

Riffing off of Jay's RSS post about the copious number of feeds many of us read - I've been trying to find a way to aggregate some of the real estate blogs and determine what others are reading.

One way I'd like to try this is by using a new service called Toluu - what follows is a description of the service and what it does, but if you want an invite, please email me. jim@realcentralva.com

From the developer -

I have also included a description of Toluu below and a Link to Louis Gray's review of the site which walks through the main points of the app.

What is Toluu?

Toluu is a utility that makes it easy to discover the feeds your friends read and find your new favorite feed. You import your feeds and then your friends can easily see what you actually read. You can also find others who have similar tastes in feeds as you do and discover feeds you may find interesting. It is quite simple.

Is Toluu a feed reader?No. We think there are dozens of fantastic feed readers out there right now and we know there are more to come. We like using our feed reader of choice and we bet you like your feed reader too. We see Toluu as a thin service that sits above your feed reader. A new way to 'feed' your feed reader (sorry for the pun). We do have a feed page, but it is truncated and is intended to serve as a taste of the feed, a quick way to determine if you are actually interested.

How do I get started?You can browse the site and see what others are reading without joining, but the real awesomeness starts when you join. After joining, you will be prompted to import your feeds. We have many methods of importing your feeds such as OPML import, URL input, and a nifty bookmarklet. The next thing to do is to start connecting with friends and others on Toluu. Toluu will do some crazy math to find others in the system who have similar tastes as you. Once you have a few contacts, you can see a stream of what your contacts have been doing through the activity stream on the homepage. Finally, when you find an interesting new feed you can add it by clicking the 'Add Feed' button on the feed page

It sounds interesting; but I'm still a neophyte and am still learing about feeds.
