Newsvine

I discovered Newsvine a couple weeks back, and I love it. It's essentially one humongous news forum, structured to get as much information on a page without making it feel crowded as possible. Everyone go check it out.

Oh, and while you're at it:

I was on a family-trip today in The Hague (Scheveningen), where Milosevic died, I hope I'm not a jinx.

@Ooble: ooble.newsvine.com doesn't seem to be working.

Great article -- I thoroughly enjoyed it. Though I have been told I have a talent for writing, I definitely could never write something like that. Great work!

Oh, and the site was interesting too. :p

Thanks very much Jessehk.

The Dark, that's pretty weird - I don't know of anyone who's had a similar problem. Running any weird third-party extensions in Firefox or IE?
