NewsCred is a digital newspaper that will give you only the most credible news from your favorite news sources.
At NewsCred, we hope to ignite a Social Media Revolution. We feel passionate about using the power of the web to restore credibility in news media. With all the news sources, mashups, blogs and aggregators available today, it is becoming increasingly difficult to discriminate between real vetted news and biased, unfactual or untenable news. NewsCred will harness the power of our community and the social web to allow the discerning news consumer to focus only on credible news content while filtering out the noise. At the same time, NewsCred is a tool that will make the news experience more relevant to our personal tastes. To us, this is a revolutionary new way of accessing high quality, credible news content.
Think of NewsCred as a customizable digital newspaper, where you can easily filter and access your preferred news sources, whether it’s mainstream media or news content from established blogs. What sets NewsCred apart is our NewsCred Ranking technology, which ensures that only the most credible, factual and relevant news is presented, as voted by the NewsCred community.
While we love Digg and other social ranking sites, but NewsCred is completely different. We are using technology and the ratings from our user community to select the most credible articles. NewsCred selects quality, while Digg presents popularity. This is a fundamental difference in our approach, and we feel this difference is what will change the way we access news content forever.
We’re taking content from traditional, mainstream new sources, combining them with established blogs, and selecting only the highest quality articles that are relevant to you. We’re throwing in some real innovation to make the selection and filtering process the easiest you’ll see on the web, and fun too.
