It is now the first place I look for news that interests me. ZITE is a Canadian start-up that went live about the same time as the iPad2. \u00a0It is a company to watch.<\/p>\n<p>ZITE is a personalized iPad magazine. You go through various categories and click on the subjects that interest you. Although there are many categories to choose from, I do wish they would start doing &#8216;micro-subjects.&#8217;\u00a0Possibly\u00a0this will come soon in Zite 2.0.<\/p>\n<p>ZITE also works like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pandora.com\/\">PANDORA<\/a> in that you can give each article a thumbs up or down. \u00a0ZITE will use your preferences to choose stories and articles to pump into your magazine. I have not used it enough to see how effective this is, but look forward to figuring this out.<\/p>\n<p>ZITE has a very easy interface and looks similar to <a href=\"http:\/\/flipboard.com\/\">FLIPBOARD<\/a>. But I prefer it because of the multitudes of categories and the crafting of my reading personality. I read that some publications like the WSJ and NYT are upset that their articles were linked to and asked that the be taken down. That is a shame. But I still feel ZITE will continue to deliver news in a way that is time-saving and customized to me.<\/p>\n<p>The era a micro-customization is upon us.<\/p>\n<p>Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I stumbled across ZITE about a month ago.
