Alltop.com is a sorta news aggregator. As the name hints, it has all the top stories!
On the home page, we see the headlines are broken into categories such as celebrities, gaming, politics, Mixed Martial Arts(!)...; each category linking to a page that pulls in blog feeds.
According to Guy Kawasaki (the brain behind Truemors... true rumors... dumbo.... & one of the makers of AllTop, alongwith Will Mayall and Kathryn Henkens), it is an online magazine rack. Summed up, he states that it is a news aggregation site that provides all the top stories for 40 of the most popular topics on the Web. The headlines and first paragraph of the five most recent stories from forty to eighty sources for each topic are displayed; all stories being refreshed every ten minutes.
Looks kool.... a must-visit for me... a la NetVibes... PopURLs... Digg... Lifehacker....
