The Antenna

An experiment in personal news aggregation

The Antenna is designed to provide me a way to quickly scan new content on the web I might be interested in reading. In essence Antenna is a Linklog. A list of feeds is aggregated into a collection of items and presented in descending date order. Most lists aggregate by the week since I don’t always have time to read. The Snapshots list is aggregated by the day. The following lists are available. All items link back to their origin sites for actual reading.
