Paper.li a site in which you simply give it a twitter name (yours is a good start) or a twitter list or a #tag, and it will create a newspaper page that’s updated every 24 hours based on whatever you entered. For example, I entered my own Twitter name @DonnaFontenot, and it created an awesome – let me repeat that – AWESOME newspaper for me that included highlights of all the LINKS that people pointed to from my own Twitter stream.

Donna Fontenot’s Personalized Newspaper

Below is a screenshot of the upper part of the newspaper, but there’s TONS more awesome stuff in it.

This enables me to see interesting things from the people I’ve chosen to follow. Sure, Twitter allows me to see that, right? But Twitter streams flash by and I miss much of what floats down that stream. My personalized newspaper allows me to see what I missed, which is very cool. Even cooler is that it’s all organized in an incredibly smart way, and it includes thumbnails to help visualize what’s there.

This perfectly fits ME. It uses my own curated list to create the perfect personalized information for me. I’m blown away.
