At Wavii, the whole wide world of news is organized into news feeds that look an awful lot like Facebook’s. You follow the topics that interest you to create a stream of bite-size updates such as “Apple issues statement saying ‘Pre-orders for iPhone 5 have been incredible,'” “Caroline Kennedy endorses Barack Obama” and “Zach Galifianakis spotted with a new hairstyle.” Each item links to more information on the event in question. It’s remarkable from a technology standpoint, and a fascinating alternative to conventional news aggregators like Google News.
