RSS had the concept of OPML, which could have been used for that purpose, but I only saw it used in very isolated cases.
The curation angle does feel like a space that the likes of Skimm, NextDraft et al have picked up.
I'm not in love with the idea of another daily email newsletter, and Redef often feels like a long list of pieces that I "ought" to read rather than stuff I get genuine pleasure from, but it's the best we've had in a while.
- basch 11y agoOPML was an export of lists, it didnt let you and me edit a list together. maybe opml+github+humandeduplicationofstoriesliketechmeme the thing that makes techmeme great is that they CHOOSE the best story, and then link to the duplicates. It might be the first, or it might be the most researched source, and they may change the link if a better one appears. Hackernews does similar, but I cant easily click "other sites with variants of this story" as an aside, I quite dislike the email newsletters, it seems very antiweb. nextdraft not having a website is infuriating.
