Yet Another Tool For Managing Blog Overload

from the soon-we'll-need-a-meta-tool... dept

Well, a full year after they had planned to launch, the NY Times is saying that Kinja will be launching. Last year it was known as the Lafayette Project, and they had said they would launch at the beginning of April 2003... Hopefully the delay just meant they were getting it right. It's Nick Denton's latest project, and the idea is to create a service that better lets you create a personalized "blog of blogs," so that you can see everything you might be interested in at a single source. It doesn't appear to be up yet, so it should be interesting to see how well it works. It seems like that latest startup craze is all these companies that are working to better manage blog-related information. It's not clear if Kinja is going to be all that different from some of the other options that are out there, but it seems likely to get plenty of attention.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
