Managing News began as a intranet application intended to facilitate filtering and monitoring news within teams. However, the same features that make it useful for an intranet also makes it perfect for a public-facing news aggregation site.

Out of the box, it's simple to set up feed aggregation, and further increase the usefulness of feeds with saved search. Many people use channels to add human filtering to feeds, to make concise, quality, highly topical feeds available for their public visitors.

Below we take a look at some examples using Managing News as a public facing site.

Drupal Planet on Managing News

The Development Seed team is using Managing News to track their favorite open source project - Drupal. This site has more than 300 feeds of key developers and organizations working with Drupal, and it's just out of the box Managing News.

We use this site to see what's happening with Drupal around the world, which is particularly useful since we are involved with local Drupal developer communities outside the United States. Bonnie uses the share feature to post links to Twitter and flags posts to team members by sending them over in an email. Jeff has a basket where he collects all of his favorite articles on smallcore.
