BlogNetNews Search
Filed in: Independents
This in-house search tool provides quick access to articles in the Blog Net News aggregator. BNN is a nationwide network tweaked for individual states.
How does Blog Net News search work?
Type a word and press the button?
And what is Blog Net News again?
Bloggers write their opinion, link to other articles that they think are relevant, and then publish on the internet. The readership that are local to each writer or follow the writer's topic, are required to leave comments reflecting if they agree/disagree with the views expressed.
On the good side, BNN is a grass roots news aggregator that is reacting against the press moguls who are currently force-feeding party political and corporate lines to the prols. On the downside, it could be a platform for bar room lawyers and pool hall politicians to air their personal grievances unbridled.
To be fair, although it could be abused, Blog Net News does have one big safety net - its user base age demographic is post 14! Therefore, unlike Digg users, the readership should have the maturity to be trusted to spot a good story from a mile off, and smell a rotten one too.
It is probably justified in claiming itself a true libertarian reflection of what is best in the local blogosphere. They just need to get rid of the Editor, and they have their fully democratic nirvana.
I would be interested to know what the Google search brings up as opposed to the Net News search. After all, a broad church is the best way to arrive at a balanced outcome. No Georgian or Pennsylvanian is going to be too hard on their own state, are they?
If you have reviewed or blogged about BlogNetNews, please contact Ed.and I will incorporate a link to it.
