Have y’all heard about Zite? It’s one of my new obsessions.
Zite is “a personalized [digital] magazine that gets smarter as you use it”.
What does that mean?
In short, you read online articles (on your iPad or iPhone) from all over the vast world wide web that are compiled into categories, and you give the articles a thumbs up, or thumbs down, based on your preferences (much like with Pandora!). Then the geniuses at Zite tailor your account to meet your information & entertainment needs.
Zite sparked my interest when I learned that lululemon athletica became the 1st branded section within the online magazine.
An example of other channels on Zite:
- Top Stories
- Food & Cooking
- Travel Blogs & Tips
- Wine & Mixology
- Exercise
- Nutrition
I am so pleased with the variety of fitness and nutrition posts, recipes, travel articles, etc. in my personal Zite magazine. I love it!
Read more about it here on the lululemon blog.
Download it here at the iTunes store. (It’s free!)
How do you read your news, and keep up-to-date with current events?
Do you still have magazine and/or newspaper subscriptions?
In other news, I still think it’s fun to elf ourselves:
What a neat idea! I wonder if their is a Droid equivalent! And I totally love your elfed up selves! Those videos always crack me UP.

Those elf photos are awesome, dorry! Bet you just smile every time you glance at them.
Thanks for talking about this new way of getting news – I’ve never heard of it, but it sounds really cool.
I no longer have mag or newspaper subscriptions – I get my news by reading the local papers online. Times are changing!
That is awesome! I am downloading it as we speak
