news junkie

I've been reading the news off Newsmap which is a fascinating and very pretty visual snapshot of what's on the Google News Aggregator. Just go there and browse around. You can choose the news from the US, UK, India, France, Germany, etc. You can pick World News, National, Technology, Business, etc. As you glide over the mosaic, the headlines appear as pop-ups.

It's fun to check out different culture's take on events, say comparing Italian health coverage to New Zealand's, or Indian's viewpoint of tech and the US's. Then again, if you`re a news junkie you would have already stumbled across this.

If only someone could create blogmap, that would be cool. It'll be much better than RSS.
