Web gets even cleverer

Published:

Jon Bright (London, OK): Just been made aware of imooty.eu, a cracking news aggregator for European news outlets. Not only does it simply and clearly aggregate the top stories from different countries, it allows you to search across countries for the same news story - find out how Gordon Brown is playing in Czechslovakia, or what Merkel has been up to according to the Portugese press.

It's still got a little way to go - what I'd really like is for it to translate my search for "EU reform treaty" into all other available languages and use the results as consecutive search terms - but you can just feel the potential. And I even found this little gem in the Swedish news: being a man is bad for the environment! The policy implications of that set the mind boggling.
