Newsvine (next Topix/DIGG?) is now open for Beta Testing ...

Newsvine has opened up and has some interesting promise as a player in the aggregration world ala Topix - read some more here. I don't have any involvement with them except I signed up as a tester a while ago, so they gave me 20 invites to pass out - PM me your Email address if you are interested and I'll send one your way until they are all gone.

No back-link, green rep, or anything else blah-blah-blah required ...
alek

P.S. INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IN THE PM PLEASE!!! ... since I have to punch in an Email address to send the invite.

 

i'll take one please

 

Be sure you PM me and include your Email address ... we're batting two for four so far ... ;-)

 

lol we call that a dry ejaculation

 

Ummmmm ... so after I send the invite and folks register with their requested handle, I get to see what it is - I don't want to say who took what, but there's a bit of a namespace grab here ... and hats off to some clever folks! ;-)

 

You got a good one - just for grins, I just grabbed cnn.newsvine.com ... since ap.newsvine.com was taken ... heh, heh! ;-)

 

Thanks for the invite, I got daily.newsvine.com

 

Any news on how newsvine is going?

I have a site honewatson.news vine.c om/ which i haven't posted anything much.

The problem is when users come to this url it asks for login... for search purposes it would be better if it showed my articles.

I have point some links the way of my newsvine URL and now its showing up PR4

 

Is your newsvine URL showing PageRank? If so, this suggests they are letting Googlebot in (?)

 

Not necessarily.

There's nothing in the cache.

The reason why the PageRank is there is because of the links I've sent there.

 

I also have invites I believe. Let me check.

EDIT: Yup I've got 20. PM me if you want in.
