NewsPond ISN’T the most advanced news site on the planet!
The Most Advanced News Site On The Planet! Who can claim this kind of statement ? Any guesses ? Well, the answer is "A startup". Only a startup can claim this kind of statement and why they’ll do so and yes you are right! To gain the attention of main stream news & bloggers.
NewsPond is one such startup which claims itself as the most advanced news site on the planet. Well, what makes them think this way, is out of my understanding. Here are few reasons for this kind of statement from me :
1. They fail to provide any RSS feeds : Are they thinking that people won’t come to their site if they’ll subscribe to the RSS feeds ? I’ll rather see that happen to my blog, it’s always beneficial to have subscribers in longer run, so my suggestion to NewsPond is to provide the RSS feeds.
2. What exactly are they offering : Mashable compared them from Digg and Techmeme, well it’s fine if it’s compared from TechMeme but Digg, well give me a break! Digg is all about user submitted stories and NewsPond works like TechMeme as it takes stories from specific sources and then ranks them according to the amount of link back it’s getting around the web.
