New webapp Lazyfeed is a topics-based newsreader that delivers the latest news focusing on subjects you’re interested in. Rather than delivering new content from specific sites, Lazyfeed only updates when it finds something new based on one of your topics of interest.
The idea behind the service is nice if you’re not all that dedicated to your favourite blogs and news outlets, but it’s lacking if you have a few favourite sites and want to keep up with them in addition to your preferred categories. I guess that’s the whole “lazy” part of Lazyfeed: The content comes to you, and you don’t have to go through the effort of adding feed after feed to your newsreader.
So while we can’t imagine ditching our dedicated feed readers for a Lazyfeed, it seems like a nice baby step into the world of newsreaders for folks who just aren’t ready to take the plunge to something like Google Reader.
