Daylife is Really Neat

January 4, 2007 · 11 comments

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.

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.
