I know I just don't have time to read the newspapers or watch the news on TV, so some mechanism that would filter the news items and give me a short synopsis of newsworthy events seemed to be just the ticket.
But maybe not everyone feels that way about it.
So let me know...........

The idea is great
I hardly ever read the newspaper and don't have time to watch TV. If i don't get it off the internet or radio, I don't get it at all.
I found a lot of that news to be very interesting and left some of it in place when I moved the rest to the canh.
I think the news sections are fine, but this automated "bot" is jamming the place up with 100's of news articles at a time
New and old members are going to have to sift through pages and pages of "news" just to get to the meat and potatoes of the site
A real inconvenience IMO.
Is there any way of controlling that "bot" so it a member would have to specifically look in that section to see the news instead of having it jammed down thier throats?
Obviously we can post our own links to florida news and happenings like the other sites and as we grow, I'm sure more and more will.
Is there some way of reaching a happy medium with this?
