Newsvine jumps into the Internet deep end.

After several months of closed alpha testing, and two months of invitation-only beta testing, Newsvine has opened up to all Internet users who want to use it. We've written articles about Newsvine a couple times, and think it's a new and interesting way to read and comment on news. While the site is currently getting hammered by users signing up, I suspect it will get sorted out in a few hours or days. The Associated Press has a full real-time feed there, plus you'll get to hear from a lot of citizen voices as well. Meanwhile, if you can get through, give it a try.


Full disclosure: I'm a contributing writer on Newsvine as well as here, and I may some day in the future receive advertising compensation from my articles published there.
