Yesterday we wrote about Percolate, a new online content filtering system developed by Noah Brier and James Gross. The platform “bubbles up” —  ie collects — interesting content that is making the rounds with your friends by scanning your Twitter and RSS feeds, and then encourages you to react to it. Today, the co-founders chatted with PSFK to tell us how their site is different from other internet curation sites, and why humans are more interesting than computers.
