Popurls
August 13, 2008

Popurls - the whole goddamn mainstream internet in one site. - at least for a handful of website genres.

If you're addicted to stuff like digg and slashdot like I am, this website is overwhelming.

It's not particularly groundbreaking or interesting but it definitely is convenient, and it somewhat reeks of internet pop culture congestion.

I found this site on sitejabber um the word over whelming comes to mind i'm one of those people who if i see a site in front of me that is just packed with content i have to sigh and decide if i want to go any further and the layouts nice but the links are small ish none the less it's interesting enough to want to embark on. Great content and well presented always prevails.

One of the few sites that justifies the adjective "awesome". Definitely more news from more sources than you'll need, but that won't stop you from wanting to read it all anyway. In recognition of the humungous vastness of it all, there's a "more..." tag at the end of every list which spares you from being overwhelmed by the whole lot at once. And in a very smart use of real-time interactivity, you may "clip" any and all the headlines that take your fancy and the links will be stored in your own personal menu for later. And this isn't even a service you need to register for, it's automatic and persistent, surviving even a clean reload of the page. With sources as far apart as the New York Times, Huffington Post and Flickr, and with a whole slew of blogs, vblogs and podcasts thrown in, it's unlikely you'll have caught up with today's buzz before tomorrow.

Very cool site. I found this on sitejabber and I think this is going to be my new homepage. Who needs CNN or the 6 oclock news when you can have this site? Love it!
