• Nieman Lab featured Current Status today, the political news aggregator I launched recently. Read the post here and be sure to check out Current Status if you haven't already.

  • I built Current Status to help me source news for the daily WTF Just Happened Today updates. "I see my role as a sort of reinforcement editor, ensuring that the good stuff is always percolating to the top. Sometimes the news isn't as neat as an algorithm wants to make it."

  • "Current Status, which describes itself as 'the political web's front page,' has been up and running for a couple of weeks now. The site updates several times an hour to provide a ranked view of the current top political news stories across, on average, more than 100 different publications."
