I caught this on Jeff’s site this evening… Dave Winer is up to something important… again. He has been talking about wanting ‘rivers of news” — that is, headlines stripped of the packaging around them to give him a constant flow of what’s new.

And he just created a few to feed his — and our — mobile phones. As Jeff goes on to explain, Dave has implemented NYTimesRiver.com and BBCRiver.com — simply taking the site’s feed and sticking into an html web page that your Blackberry or any mobile phone will love. So, that’s nothing new. No. I use my Blackberry all the time to read the news. Here’s how it works at the moment: 1. 10. Ok, so now… Here’s Dave’s solution: 1. While the BBC produces some of the best content on the web — and for mobile — Dave’s BBCRiver.com fixes it all for me, perfectly. OPML Renderer » Yabfog.

Tracking the web with Single Page Aggregators. Popurls has quickly grown to be one of my favorite websites helping me keep track what’s buzzing around the web. It’s a simple site that aggregates popular social services and websites such as Digg, Del.icio.us, Reddit, Flickr, and more. Each site gets its own area on the page listing the latest items and users can hover over items to get a summary.

It’s great because it gives you a quick glimpse at what’s buzzing around the web and beats having to subscribe to all of the sites. It’s clear people like these kind of sites and Popurls has seemed to start a chain or a class of these sites carrying on the concept. I’m not exactly sure what to call these sites as they are basically one page feed aggregators, but I suppose it’s safe to say they present the links, media, and search in a portal like fashion. There are two portals that I check up on numerous times a day: Popurls and Digg View. After compiling a list of portals, I grouped them into categories and decided to share them with you. BozPages.
