Particls - Particls is the new name for Touchstone, an attention management system that we've tested, but never reviewed, if I remember correctly. It's essentially an application that watches the information you consume and uses that to make recommendations - it's also supporting APML, a new format that lets you import and export this attention metadata in the same way that you can currently import and export a list of RSS feeds (aka an OPML file) between RSS readers. If that's not enough jargon for you already, also note that Particls has launched a special version for the Web 2.0 Expo, all set up to keep you in tune with happenings at that veritable geekfest.
