Topix Opens All News for Comments and Contributions

Topix.net, a news aggregation site and a CooperKatz client, today unleashed not only a new design but a bunch of new features. One notable one is that every single news story and blog post that it aggregates and categorizes into topic pages can now be commented on and augmented with citizen journalism. For example, take this one on the Yahoo/Six Apart tie-up, which for some reason features my mug.

In addition, Topix has launched a new page that streams the Top Stories in the Blogosphere. It's broader than sites like memeorandum (which I love by the way) in that it goes beyond tech and politics while also showing more blogs beyond the top 10%. You can grab the feed for that page here.
