What is Newsodrome?

In my previous post, I wrote about why we started Newsodrome. In this post, I wanted to tell you what Newsodrome can do for you and share some of our excitement.

Newsodrome shows you the most interesting news in your areas of interest. News that matter to you. And it will do that in your familiar, uncluttered newspaper format.
Interested in Cars? Fashion? Video games in general or specifically in Wii? is you favorite sport Baseball or is it Yoga? want the latest in Python development or the latest buzz about Knitting? you can get it all at Newsodrome, up-to-date and from the best online sources.

Powering Newsodrome is a computerized editor. An artificial intelligence that sifts through huge amount of content, classifies it and ranks it. But the automaton's work doesn't end there... behind Newsodrome is our vision of an AI that evolves to offer you better, more interesting news over time. After showing you your newspaper, our computerized editor continues to listen to your feedbacks - articles you liked and disliked, topics you read more than others, news sources that attracted your attention - and it evolves. It learns from your experience and from the experiences of others and over time it will pick on subtle hints that even you might have missed - a writer you tend to read more than others, words and expressions that put you off, specialized topics within your topics of interest that better capture your attention. The end result? your personalized newspaper with the best news the Internet has to offer on your areas of interest.

But... Newsodrome is at a very early stage. We chose to start small - expose only a few selected news topics with a basic AI, keeping things to a minimum and build it from there, basing our expansion decisions on your comments and feedback.

So - stop Google-ing for news. Forget about registering to dozens of blogs. Leave the days of sifting through tons of articles just to find the one article that is of interest to you. Come visit us at Newsodrome instead!

Waiting for your thoughts and ideas.
