There’s a new trend in the way of RSS and social media gathering—create your own site, with customized feeds, news, and content. Instead of picking and choosing every little feed to consume in a straight, plain reader, create your own media rich news site and make money from it. This is what the fresh-out-of-the-Pligg-box-site, NewsBeet has to offer. You provide the topic, the news you’re interested in, and NewsBeet will create your very own “Beet” or site for you beginning with your RSS feeds. For example, if you’re interested in all things Britney Spears (because, let’s face it... read more

Downloaded, Zebtab, appears on the desktop as a sort of online magazine format with tabs for each different channel. Zebtab comes with a few preset channels, Maxim and betting site At The Races, among them. The Zebtab c... read more
