Suggestion Customize DP Homepage news feed

    I love reading the articles on the homepage news feed.

    I just wish I could customize it to only show articles from certain categories.

    Also, you should import other websites as well (Shoutmeloud, moz, etc).

    I don't really care which patents Uber just applied for, however I DO care about Google algo updates coming soon.

    It would be nice to assign each article into a category and let DP users choose which categories to view on their homepage.

    The problem then is it doesn't become an automated system... you would need humans curating the content and categorizing it before it's shown... at which point it might be old news by then.

    Understood!

    I use Digital Point as my homepage.

    My Analytics, Adsense, Paypal information is here - as well as latest news.

    Just thought it would be cool to have everything customized exactly the way I like it - but it's still very useful.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Yeah... it would be nice, but like I said, you start then dealing with trying to curate/categorize stuff before displaying it, so probably not super useful in a real-world scenario since we wouldn't have a dedicated person just sitting there waiting for new stuff to come in. :)
