I discovered Joe Davis and TT a couple years (even going so far as to make my own editing tool which, I like to think, influenced Joe's own implementation). I was thinking about the news article ideas the other day, actually. (E.g., a 24in60.com snippet that expends to a full article.) I think it would be really cool, but it takes a lot of work to make something seamlessly go from being a snippet of information to a full-fledged investigatory article. You'd basically have to write a series of increasingly more detailed articles using the same story flow. This might be something text analytics and computer-generated content could be able to do; if not today, then someday.
