Please describe the Weak Signal (approx. 150 words)

Project MyMedia addresses the key social problem of what has been called the "Crisis of Choice", the problem of information overload. The goal is to increase the level of relevant content over the "noise". The problem worsens year-by-year as more and more content, including self-created content, becomes available online as well as through traditional broadcast means (delivered through satellite, over-the-air, IPTV, and cable). The probem will be addressed by creating an open source software framework to dynamically personalize the delivery and consumption of multimedia. MyMedia will tame growing volume of content streams by combining them and allow users to sip from a single manageable stream of the most personally relevant content.
