A Site for Busy People Over 30, News That Really Matters.
Saturday, September 12th, 2009I used to visit sites like Digg and Reddit. It took me so much time to weed through the bad to get to the gems that I finally had enough. Why couldn’t there be a news site not controlled by a bunch of teenagers posting links to stupid time wasting pages and socialist propaganda? I had to do something about it: over30news.com.
How does it work? Fairly simple.. Users who sign-up can submit links to news articles. The articles go into the “Upcoming News” page (see tabs above). Every time a member clicks on the “Voted” icon left of the title, the number of votes increases by one. When the count reaches a certain number, the article is promoted to the front page. The goal is to weed out uninteresting news and keep the best ones on top.
What’s in it for you? Members who have a Google Adsense account can set their id number in their profile and will share the profits from visitors clicking on ads appearing on articles they submitted. Of course, article authors will receive traffic to their sites from over30news.com. Everyone saves time by not having to search for the best news.
