They used to do what we do.
But with a whip instead of a poorly-drawn dog.
Now Dublin-based Newswhip.com – tiring of the abject degradation of life at the Irish satirical news coalface – has re-launched as a fiendishly clever social network news aggregator.
A whatnow?
The site tracks and list the most popular stories among users of Facebook and Twitter IN REAL TIME (as it happens) and follows the stories as they spread across social networks around the globe. Like a weather service tracking Hurricane Katia if Hurricane Katia was an article about a murdered Gordon Ramsey-lookalike dwarf porn star.
Only three days since going ‘live’ Newswhip seems to have struck a chord with the onlinerati. They might even make some money.
We wish them the best of luck
Bastards.
