Daylife is Really Neat

Jan 04, 2007 in , ,

Unlike Arrington, I am thoroughly pleased with Daylife - an up and coming startup changing the way we absorb news. Particularly, I find the “covers” method of discovering news stories to be a powerful method of overseeing content. Clicking a cover takes you to the topics page where Daylife aggregates stories for the cover from various news sources. I showed it to my mom earlier tonight and described it as the future of news online.

  1. Yeah, I took a look at Daylife today and had the same impressions. Sometimes I think Arrington enjoys to slam a new start up. But whatev.

  2. Are you just going to be reviewing websites for now on? I think tech news and product reviews were more interesting =P

  3. This is pretty cool especially for people who are lazy to read like me

  4. @Don - throughout the year, PR people and the such email me asking me to take a look at their service and I’m trying to get done with all of that in the new year. =)

  5. Great idea for a web site. There’s so much news in the world you just can’t keep up. Also I have a tendency to look up different resources for the same story. With Daylife you get it all in one scoop. Great site !

  6. very interesting.

  7. We would like to inform you that your blog has now been added to the Megite index. We kindly invite you to explore Megite’s latest version at http://www.megite.com.

  8. Hmm, this looks seriously interested; and I’m definetly going to check it out. Currently I’m using Google’s RSS Reader (Google Reader) to keep up on news. Very dull and boring; I might have to try this.

  9. I agree that the front-page is well designed, though it loaded pretty slowly on my computer and I found the stories they selected weren’t ones I would have chosen to spend that kind of time with. Also, the topics pages was a complete mess and the “smart software” wasn’t able to select the best story out the several dozen versions that were written about prominent news items. I doubt very much this is the future of news online.
