Drowning, not waving
It's out there - a wave of news headlines, commentary, specials, story archives, breaking news and opinions - and it threatens to become a tsunami. Enter the
news aggregators - sites such as
Google News (
http://news.google.com/) and the
Columbia Newsblaster (
http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/nlp/newsblaster/) - that help you stay focused on
your news.
Reuters has a story on these services that do not produce their own news themselves but help you keep track of news from all over. The piece, "News Sites Make Sense of Web's Flood of Info", is at
