My Google News

In: web apps

10 Mar 2005

Josh Petersen has the latest on new customization features at Google News. They seem to focus on the low hanging fruit. I for one am more interested in news cross-analysis, fact checking and discovery than basic filtering. Moreover, I don’t want to manage my Google preferences in 5 different environments (news, search, groups, etc.); MyYahoo has clearly an edge in integrating the whole portal breadth in one place.

About this blog

I'm CEO of an online trade publishing firm in the marketing and defense verticals. We try to make news and data digestible and useful in an environment that is more noisy each day. This personal blog mixes my thoughts and interests on politics, business, software, and more, based on my business and personal experiences. Over the years I have posted items that turned out spectacularly wrong, and a few posts that stood the test of times better. Personal views only.
