At last something promising that will help me unclutter the "read it later" webpages I bookmarked and wanted to read for ages but didn't have time to read them.

Yeah, that one of the "solutions" to the "information overload/exhaustion" problem we're solving.

Thing is the "read it later" approach doesn't really solves your main problem (getting the facts fast).

Impressed by the bookmarklet. How does the summarizer work? Is the Gremlin technology patented? :)

[tdr → rzh]

Well, web startups don't work that way.

The workflow is:

    listens for news-highlighting requests

    gets each and every webpage/feed

    detects the main content

    processes the content and pinpoints the relevant sentences from each news article

    creates a new enhanced webpage/feed containing the color-highlighted relevant bits

    sends the results to your browser (webpages) or gives them to your RSS Reader

The hard-lifting is done by a semantic component built in-house.

That is great, I couldn't wait to have something like that!!!
