You might have noticed me slipping in a link to this site a couple of days ago, which was a little sneaky, I’ll admit, so I thought I’d better give it a proper mention.

TeeBurst is a site I’ve created (using this clever persons code) to deliver a constantly updated stream of t-shirt news and media. The news comes from Google News, Digg, Reddit & Technorati, whilst del.icio.us covers the social bookmarking angle, whenever someone tags something as t-shirt related on those sites, the headline of that story goes onto their TeeBurst feed. I’ve also included HYAs headlines on there since I’m a shameless self-promoter.

The media side of things keeps things looking fairly pretty, pictures of t-shirts from Flickr, and videos about t-shirts from YouTube. Interestingly, if you do a search on YouTube for ‘t-shirt‘, then most of the results (when sorted by date added) are about wet t-shirt competitions or not related to tees at all (could people please stop tagging vids with ‘t-shirt’ because someone in the video is wearing a tee?), but if you search for ‘t-shirts‘ then you find out that quite a lot of tee companies are using youtube to promote themselves.

I don’t expect TeeBurst to be a massive success, as it is just a PopUrls clone, but I’ve actually found it pretty useful over the past few days for getting new stories and keeping some of the websites I check out in one place, and hopefully you’ll find it useful too. Suggestions and comments are welcome obviously, I’d like to tweak a few things about it (colour scheme, a logo, maybe put some other tee blogs in the roster), so if you can think of anything just let me know.
