In his blog post today, Seth Godin, author and agent of change, writes about “that feeling of the impending rush” with the rapidly changing web.  “The web is changing, and so fast it’s almost impossible to keep up. But Emily is trying.  Check out:  Emily Chang - eHub. In just a few weeks, she’s collected literally hundreds of new companies/projects that are examples of things that are turning the web upside down.”

(Updated 9/30) Global traffic to eHub is still growing (hello, Cyprus!), email submissions come in every day from web 2.0 creators, eHub’s RSS feed is getting over 300 900 readers and 2000 7000 hits a day, and over 570 1300 people have bookmarked eHub in del.icio.us.  I’ve put up this partial list of sites that have blogged about or linked to eHub.  This list will be updated as sites come in daily.
