GigaOM is running a profile of Medium , a new startup that "thinks it can help make web browsing social by telling you what pages your friends are on at any moment, and where people are congregating on the web at that instant." The software comes in the form of a Firefox sidebar that displays real-time map of the web with the site you're currently visiting in the middle and "related" sites--determined by what people with similar browsing habits visit--surrounding it.

jots , netvouz and blinklist , digg.com , a kind of story rating system, and two more open source solutions – Scuttle and de.lirio.us – have been added.
