Get your news faster.

I find the “Top Picks from Your Page” module to be an interesting one, particularly because I have a lot of content modules on my page. It’s a “smart” module, as it learns the topics that I typically click on, along with my favorite content sources from all of my tabbed pages. From there, it determines the news items that interest me the most. The module gets smarter over time; the more I click on my pages, the more accurate the module becomes at showing me what I want to see.

Check this out…the best part is that stories are listed in chronological order, but represent the most relevant stories for me. I can even edit the module to show me anywhere from 5 to 50 stories – I can control it that easily!


I have mine at the top of the page, so when I have a few minutes I can quickly check out some stories that are likely to be most relevant to me. It’s such a convenient way for me to focus my attention when I have a few minutes to spare. Try comparing your module to a friend’s; your content will always differ – the module is that personalized.
Add the “Top Picks from Your Page” module to your page.

Enjoy!

This is so cool!
I too have too many modules on my page and this will be great when I don’t have the time to browse the entire page.
Keep up the great work!
