Lazyfeed

As more and more of us turn to blogs to keep up with the world around us, we often wonder what is being said elsewhere on the blogsphere.

Lazyfeed is:
  • a great tool to search what is being said,
  • a discovery tool to find new blogs about your interests, as well as
  • a place to keep up with your world by subscribing to their services.
  • Lazyfeed is also a great way to step into the real time web.
In announcing that they are now open for everyone, CEO Ethan Gahng says,

We are currently indexing contents from various video sites, photo sites, and from about 1 million blogs, and it's still growing.

Thank you for all your support. We received lots of great feedback and applied lots of them to the product. Some of the significant changes we've made since our first debut are:

1. Status Bar : We now have a status bar at the bottom of the page, which makes it easy to navigate. You can easily access "Topics for Lazy Me" and "Saved Stuff" from here.

2. Personalization : If you don't want to see contents from certain sources, you can block them easily by using "block this source" feature.

3. Sharing : You can now share your interesting discoveries with your friends on Twitter, Facebook, and with Email. You only need one click to do this, so try it!

Also, we have created a new screencast recently. We tried to include some example use cases, so that you can use Lazyfeed more effectively. Please watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCse5Z4KaxY&feature=player_embedded

best,
