One part of web 2.0 I find interesting is the news sites. Anyone can submit a news story so I find the most interesting and informative news items there.
There is a nice selection of sites to check for news. Each site has a little of it’s own focus and presentation.
Propeller has a wide variety of topics from regular news to fun topics like pets, humor, and movies.
ShoutWire has a nice look to it. They cover Technology, Sports, Education and many other topics
Marktd is focused on marketing so is a good resource is that is your interest.
IndianPad is a great place to get news fast because it has a clean layout. They cover everything.
Reddit is also a clean layout and has an active amount of comments going on.
Plime looks sharp. They have news with comments and a forum.
NewsVine has the best world news and the most news from the news wires like API.
All these sites have voting on the stories. Anyone who opens an account can post a story. You will want to check they posting policy before you join to make sure you can post the kind of stories you want to post wothout violating the terms.
Personally I have always been kind of a news junkie from reading the newspaper to listening to NPR and BBC world news.
If you like to write and post and get the word to the world these web 2.0 news sites offer a great way to do this. The only drawback is it can be kind of time consuming to post to that many sites, if you should choose to. Fortunatly there is a tool designed to post to these sites, Web2Submitter.
The Web2Submitter is a really usefull time saving tool. Click on the name Web2Submitter and see the video that explains how it works.
