Nuzzel
News from your friends.
Overview
Nuzzel provides a simple solution to information overload by showing you the news stories that are being shared and discussed most by your network on Twitter and LinkedIn. Instead of relying on algorithms to guess your interests, it uses your social graph as a filter. It's an effective way to see what's trending within your specific industry or circle of peers. Note: Nuzzel was acquired and its service has been integrated into other platforms, but the core concept remains influential.
