Visit the site here. I also have a blog.
My submission for the Pennapps 2013 hackathon. SocialRank is a content & meme aggregator which combines Facebook's social media with Reddit's famous hotness algorithm. The content also updates in real time.
Check out my other project, Wintria, if you'd to see a news search engine which i'm working on at the moment as a startup.
NOTE: If you'd actually try to deploy this there are two things which must be added.
First is your own settings.py and be sure to include values for:
get_root_url()
FB_APP_ID
FB_APP_SECRET
You also need to set up a crontab assuming you are on a linux server setup. This is because socialrank's crawlers need to be pulling news from other websites on a timed interval.
Here are crontab examples
