Favorize – Social Network for News & Content Sharing
From the archive · This story retains its original publication date. Company information may have changed.
Ed: Not sure the landing page does this app justice. When I took a look inside there is a real time feed of peoples shared content in a way which is different to what you get from twitter or other social networks.
Not disimilar to Quibb but a nicer interface. Worth a look.

In other words, a Pinterest for paragraphs, where you can enjoy 5-10 of short reads throughout the day. |
