i just joined newsvine and i now have 20 invites to give away. however "by inviting someone into Newsvine, you are implicitly endorsing them as a potential positive member of the community." so i'm only giving them to people i know or whose blogs i read, etc.whats a newsvine you ask?
it seems like a pretty cool idea. very digg-like. its still in beta now, so you need to be invited to join.
At Newsvine, you can read breaking news from around the world, write your own articles, and publish links from across the web directly to your column. You'll also keep ad revenue from all traffic your pages generate. Feel free to register and select a domain name for yourself (yourname.newsvine.com) whenever you'd like. It's all free of course.
you can visit my newsvine page at erica.newsvine.com and of course you'll want to subscribe to the rss.
let me know if you want an invite!
