www.newsgarbage.com, a new user-controlled technology news site has now
gone into beta. Newsgarbage works in a similar way to other news sites,
such as slashdot or digg.com, but allows much greater user control,
through it's "bag or bin" philosophy, over which stories get promoted
to the front page, or indeed, get dumped into the Trash pool! An array
of user-oriented tools and features, including a forum for discussing
all things technical, will be added over the following weeks, and the
owners of the site are keen to make the site "what the users want" and
encourage people to sign up, start using the site and tell them what
they'd like to see!
