Silobreaker


I recently found this somewhere (sorry I don't remember where to give credit) and have found it my number one news source in the mornings while drinking coffee. Drudge is of course what I mostly use, but I'm leaning more and more to SiloBreaker for my quick fix of new.

From The Site:
About Silobreaker - Silobreaker: "About Silobreaker
Silobreaker is a search service for news and current affairs that aims to provide more relevant results to the user than what traditional search and aggregation engines have been offering so far. Instead of returning just lists of articles matching a search query, Silobreaker finds people, companies, organisations, topics, places and keywords; understands how they relate to each other in the news flow, and puts them in context through graphical results in its intuitive user interface.

The site pulls content on global issues, science, technology, energy and business from thousands of news sources, blogs, multimedia, and other forms of news media from around the world. With the engine’s focus on finding and connecting related data in the information flow, Silobreaker’s user tools and visualisations are ideal for bringing meaning to content from either today’s Web or the evolving Semantic Web, or both."
