    TheIssue.com - The Blog Newspaper

    People blogging from all kinds of backgrounds, across the world are generating a wealth of knowledge. However, the main problem (like an e-mail inbox) is information overload.

    Out of the millions of blog posts every day, which are the best ones? RSS readers try to help keep tabs- but they don't solve the "which blog posts are best" problem. Places such as the Huffington Post are great, but their commissioned Bloggers use the medium of blogs to build a traditional new source - rather than bringing together the best of what is being produced. The Issue is a blog newspaper. The team handpicks some of the top blog posts each day to produce a comfortably formatted newspaper. Capitalizing on the diversity of perspectives - they show 4 views on a particular Issue each day. This allows them to fight bias and let readers make informed decisions, getting a deep dive into every Issue in a short amount of time. They’ve got several other sections as well, including a photoblog section called the Darkroom and a "What Ever Happened To" section that picks up news that the mainstream media has forgotten about - something bloggers also do quite well.

    Why TheIssue.com might be a killer

    This is a site that adds value to: The Blogger - Increased traffic and exposure of their site - because they only use a short excerpt and then a link. The Blog Reader - A great portal through which to discover new blogs, or start your daily blog dive. The News Reader - Get multiple perspectives from a news source that has more reporters than all of the other news sources combined, located all around the world, writing on all kinds of different topics.

    TheIssue.com In their own words

    “The Issue is a non-partisan blog newspaper that provides a window to an emerging world of diverse and informed opinions. We cull the blogosphere for its wise insights, probing analyses, and diverse perspectives, drawing together a borderless newspaper. By combining the democratization and diversity of new media with the format and editorial standards of traditional news, we hope to offer a hybrid news source that provides the best of both worlds.”
