\"ActualLate last year, I took a look at how search services were being affected by the unchecked growth of ultra-digested, 140-character-or-less news blips<\/a>. In my research, I talked to a Vancouver-based startup called Worio that was tackling the difficult problem of creating a search engine that “understood” what kind of data was important to the user.<\/p>\n

Now, the team is working on creating a new content discovery service, which it is calling Zite.<\/p>\n

Zite harvests keywords and themes from your Twitter feed and Delicious bookmarks and turns them into a “follow list.” The same way you follow individuals on Twitter, you follow keywords on Zite, and you can customize your list to be as long or short as you like.<\/p>\n

Based upon this follow list, Zite then creates a news feed of articles it thinks you will like. The results are broken into two lists: articles published within the last 24 hours, and articles that are more than a day old.<\/p>\n

It’s a super new service, and the Zite team wants your help, so they’ve given us 50 beta invites which will let you get in and access Zite directly right now. <\/p>\n

Click here to get access to the Zite beta!<\/a><\/b><\/center><\/p>\n

Only the first 50 readers to click that link will be able to participate in this round of testing, so click quickly!<\/p>\n
