Streamocracy

I came across an interesting new site today called Streamocracy.  In general, it seems to be a technology focused website aimed specifically at video sharing.

However, what caught my eye was their Newswire section.  It seems that what they’re doing here is aggregating RSS feeds from other technology-related sites across the Web and archiving recent content on their servers.  It’s essentially the same idea as what we see with Slashdot, only in this case, the posts are re-published “as-is”, rather than having a comment written by an editor (which is how Slashdot work).

I would encourage you to check them out - particularly the Newswire section (http://www.streamocracy.com/newswire/index.php) and to leave a comment here to share with us all what you think of their service!

Enjoy! :)

    Good find. This seems interesting. I wonder if there is an RSS feed directly for the Newswire section? I couldn’t find it.

    Hi Jonny,

    I’ve been in touch with the CEO of Streamocracy and asked him the question, as I was also unable to find the feed! Once I have a response back, I’ll add it to the post.

    Kind regards,
    -John.

    Yeah, It is the very common idea to serve your visitors at one point rather than making them wander here and there.
