A little help for your Daylife
5Jan2007
A new startup has just launched to help people in the hard task of reading daily news. Daylife, as it is called, offers its users a new way to read the news with a wide variety of perspectives.
The service crawls the news from several respected news sites and automatically analyzes and classifies them to find out hot topics and top stories of the day, becoming so far a Google News’ competitor.
But Daylife also adds automatic relationships among stories, people, places and organizations giving its user the ability to explore the connections their own way. Furthermore, Daylife offers the posibility of having your own “world” with your selected topics and preferences with just a simple click on a little star nearby any kind of content.
On the other hand, Daylife lacks functionalities for community discussion, rating content or RSS feeds. Considering that the market is hot for mergers and acquisitions (remember yesterday’s purchase of StudiVZ), there can be a bright future for a service like that as long as they include all so-called web2.0-like functionalities. What comes next? Only time will tell.
