Newsflashr.com aggregates the aggregators By Dan Farber, Webware (Aug 6)
Newsflashr - aggregates headlines from other aggregator. - but it also views by topic and time.
"In the category of yet-another-news-tracker, Newsflashr.com added search engine to its news aggregation service, which was launched in February this year. It searches across feeds from popular news-oriented sites, such as Yahoo News, Google News, Digg, MSNBC and even Twitter, delivering results by source."
Interesting how much coverage the "Tim McLean" story in Canada got across US and British sources.
For headline search, iNewsflashr is ho-hum, but the tag cloud of stories and ranking of topics is engaging. On August 6 the two hottest stories are about a coup happening in Mauritania, and events in Beijing.
