Topic: News aggregator


In the News (Mon 13 Feb 12)

  
  Aggregator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An aggregator or news aggregator or feed reader is client software that uses a web feed to retrieve syndicated web content such as weblogs, podcasts, vlogs, and mainstream mass media websites, or in the case of a search aggregator, a customized set of search results.
Aggregators reduce the time and effort needed to regularly check websites for updates, creating a unique information space or "personal newspaper." Once subscribed to a feed, an aggregator is able to check for new content at user-determined intervals and retrieve the update.
One of the problems with news aggregators is that the volume of articles can sometimes be overwhelming, especially when the user has many feeds.

 Wired News: Aggregators Attack Info Overload
Many now say that their news aggregator is as indispensable as their e-mail client.
Aggregators, such as NewsGator and AmphetaDesk, allow users to subscribe to feeds from sources as diverse as the BBC, Sci-Fi Today, Slashdot and thousands of bloggers across the world.
For instance, the popular aggregator SharpReader, which runs on Microsoft's.NET framework, displays RSS feeds in a window similar to that of a standard e-mail client.

 DaveNet : What is a News Aggregator?
A news aggregator is "software that periodically reads a set of news sources, in one of several XML-based formats, finds the new bits, and displays them in reverse-chronological order on a single page."
Not only am I getting news from professional news organizations, but I am also hearing from people and non-news organizations who make a difference to me. Rarely an hour goes by without something interesting happening, my mind is stimulated, I get new ideas, and of course I share them.
In many ways it feels like aggregators are where weblogs were a couple of years ago, just about to be discovered by a much larger group of people.

Nov 29 2004, 10:45 AM I think one of the reasons we find the Drudge Report entertaining is that it's serving as a news aggregator for us.
The problem with just looking at CNN.com for news, for example, is that you just get their stories and their view.
However, if you just had a news aggregator compiling news from multiple sources automatically, it still wouldn't be as entertaining as Drudge.

The bad news was that many of them had been motivated to come out and support Dennis Kucinich by none other than Dennis himself, who spoke to a crowd of several hundred on Friday.
I say bad news because Kucinich gained the most delegates to the state convention in May, while Dean was viable only in district 8, which gave him three delegates to the state convention.

 Inside Yahoo News: Aggregator brings RSS to the masses
Suddenly, Yahoo News was more than just a collection of licensed content from established news sources -- it was every news source and Weblog that had an RSS feed.
Plans are afoot to move most of the editorial operations to the new Yahoo Media Center in Santa Monica, Calif. Though Yahoo spokesmen are relatively tight-lipped about who's moving when, signs abound that new editorial hires will be heading south.
While Yahoo News has a long history of filtering and aggregating content on the Web, the future holds even more promise, with Moore and Budde on board, the resources of a forward-thinking technology company behind them and the new synergized headquarters in Santa Monica.
