Introducing Google’s “Living Stories”

I learned about GoogleLab’s ‘Living Stories’ collaboration project with the New York Times and the Washington Post via ResearchBuzz.  I see great potential in this application.  Is this the new RSS Reader?  The new Wikipedia?   To understand ‘Living Stories’ watch the brief video on the page.

Currently, the following TIMELY stories are included:

• Health Care Reform
  
• Afghanistan War
  
• Global Warming & Politics
  
• Washington Redskins’ Problems
• Executive Compensation Controveries
  
• Washington, D.C.s Schools under Michelle Rhee
  
• The Swine Flu
