Powered by data, filtered by experts - introducing the Tweetminster News Platform
Tweetminster’s goal has always been to use data to help people better connect with the influencers, trends, news and opinion that shape current affairs.
During the past few months we’ve been busy connecting the dots between the various technologies, algorithms and tools we’ve built over the past two years to develop a news platform that is curated by data and filtered by experts.
The Tweetminster News Platform uses data to discover and organise high-quality content and relevant trends that surround topics and interests, making them easily accessible and immediately useful:
We identify influencers and experts within any topic;
We analyse these networks to determine the content influencers are sharing the most;
We dynamically aggregate this set of highly recommended content into a single magazine interface.
The content that is generated and how it’s presented is entirely driven by data and completely free from human or editorial intervention. The new interface uses sharing data (the popularity of shared links within networks of influencers) to determine the layout and typography of the page. The platform is optimised for the web, tablets and smart-phones.
Our goal is to use data to help you find high-quality news and content about your topics and issues of interest - filtered by experts, easily accessible and made available on any platform, anytime.
We’re excited to announce that we’ll be bringing this model to new markets, and venturing into new topic areas beyond politics and current affairs. Although we started with politics and current affairs, we’ve always been a media company. Today sees the end of this development journey and the beginning of a new chapter as we expand into new subject areas and markets.
Our focus is on people’s interests and tracking the most influential news and opinion. Throughout 2011, we will be launching newly branded products as a series of stand-alone platforms.
