They also use this domain and name: https://en.mention.net/

No way. Mention is a great tool, and even better in some aspects, but it stops at 500 mentions of whatever you put it to search unless you pony up 19.99$/month.

Ok, I didn't reach that limit so far. Thanks for the info, Robin.
Scoop.it!
Robin Good: One of the most effective and popular methods to stay abreast of a topic area or to discover new stories about an issue is the use "hashtags" for Twitter seaches.
Here is a bunch of tools that make it easy for you to monitor and search, one or multiple Twitter hashtags on your preferred topics.
Useful. Resourceful. 7/10

Scoop.it!
Robin Good: NewsWhip is a news discovery service that specializes in bringing you only the fastest spreading news stories on Facebook and Twitter.
The news are organized by main geographical areas and by broad key topics, from which you can select your preferred ones.
From the official site: "NewsWhip's technology tracks all the news published by about 5,000 English-language sources –about 60,000 news stories each day. It gathers social data for each story – how many shares, likes, tweets and comments it has – at repeated intervals, building a live picture of how popular it is, right now. With this information, it calculates a social speed at which each story is travelling. The process is unique, new, and patent pending."
My comments: If you are looking to pick up "trendy" stories across the board or on specific general interest areas NewsWhip may be a great companion. Disappointing if you are looking for quality, in-depth stories in specific niche areas. 1) Spike - makes it easy to catch stries that are starting to trend 2) Social Amplifier - exposes your most valuable articles by leveraging your readers preferences via Facebook and Twitter

Eerder schreef ik een artikeltje over alternatieven voor Google Reader (http://www.beeldbedrijf.nl/2013/google-nieuws/) maar OneFeed is dus ook een mogelijkheid als je Chrome als browser gebruikt.

Use Onefeed to replace your New Tab page in Chrome. With Onefeed you can add a custom newsfeed and get alerts from your social media accounts.
Scoop.it!
Robin Good: The future, for those seeking the news, may not be on Google News or TV. This is what emerges from looking at general trends and recent data that analyze where and how individuals are accessing and finding the news that they are interested into.
From PandoDaily: "...Pew media survey from last month also showed that the percentage of Americans who say they saw news or news headlines on social networking sites had increased from 9 percent to 19 percent since 2010.
For people younger than 30, just as many saw news on social media (33 percent) as had seen any TV news (34 percent).
Increasingly, news is coming to us through our friend and interest networks, via Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and LinkedIn especially.
Today, there’s simply less need to seek news out via aggregation services.
That’s a fact that Buzzfeed, which relies on social sharing for the lion’s share of its traffic, has pretty much bet its business on. On most of its stories, Buzzfeed displays a “stats dashboard” that shows where each article’s referral traffic comes from. In three randomly selected pieces (this one, this one, and this one), traffic from “Google.com” came in well below traffic from Facebook and Twitter, and in some cases Reddit, Tumblr, and Digg."

News Discovery Tools: Slices for Twitter Organizes and Auto-Curates Your News Stream Into Categories
From
slices
Robin Good: Slices is a news discovery app that allows you to find the news that interest you by "slicing" the Twitter timeline into topic-specific categories, making it much easier to find what you are looking for.
From Pandodaily official review: "Slices offers 21 searchable categories – humor, technology, sports, and so on – that lead you to people and lists to follow. Included among those top-level categories is the “Live Events” option, which allows you to select an event – a football match, say, or a TV show – and follow Tweets from a curated list.
...The “Timeline Slicer” also outdoes Twitter’s Lists as a way to organize the people you follow into specific categories. They’re easier to set up and easier to access, ..."

Robin Good: Prismatic is a news discovery tool allowing you to select and specify the "interests" and topics on which you want to be kept up-to-date.
Once configured Prismatic offers a well laid out web-based magazine format in which you can pick and look at any of your preferred news topics.
Prismatic automatically provides detailed information about each news story it will present you, including the number of times it has already been shared and the relevant tags associated to it.
Initially Prismatic connects to your main social networks (FB and Twitter) to learn about your interests and then gradually learns with your help what kind of content you are most interested in.
Prismatic has two ways to discover new interests: search and links to related feeds. Search can find topic and publisher feeds or you can create a new feed from a query. Each story has links to related feeds, which you can follow to explore new interests.

Hello Otir, yes I have.
Nothing to do with Scoop.it. This is good either to create a page where to see all of your preferred RSS feeds in a visual fashion, or to create out of your feeds a visual page that displays them all.

Thanks for your reply, Robin! I will look into it more in depth then! Seems really interesting... (so many new tools, so little time, though :-)
