Thoof - A Personalized News Service
Thoof is a personalized news and information service that allows you to view the information submitted by other Thoof users. Thoof has a user interest monitoring system which monitors your interest and provides you with only the information that is relevant to your likings. Another good system that Thoof has and with which I think the Thoof really excels over other bookmarking sites is the ThoofRank.
The ThoofRank gives a fair chance to every new story and measures how interesting a story is to the readers having the common interest as compared to other Thoof stories. The ThoofRank of a new story starts with a very low rank but as more and more users see it, the ThoofRank increases. You can also add a ThoofRank badge to your story by adding a simple HTML code which will show your visitors your current ThoofRank.
Another thing that I liked about Thoof is that they allow the readers to improve a story. For this, the users just have to click on the improve button of the story and then they can either vote on the improvements proposed by other readers or they can propose their own change. In this way, the Thoof users becomes a part of the Thoof .
Well, the Thoof is one of the most advanced user generated information system that I have come across. So, if you are looking for news and information then Thoof is there to help you.
