What is "newsvine"

Newsvine is a liberal-leaning, community-powered, collaborative journalism news website which draws content from its users and syndicated content from mainstream sources such as The Associated Press. Users can write articles, "seed" links to external content, and discuss news items in an online forum. These news items are submitted by both users and professional journalists. Newsvine, the company, is not a news bureau and exercises no editorial voice, but provides social news platform for the online community which has grown around it. Members decide with their online actions what news articles stay on the site and what news is removed. Newsvine was named the Top News Site of 2006 and one of the 50 Best Websites of 2007 by Time magazine.
