I recently started serving as an evangelist for Daylife, and if you haven’t heard of them before, Daylife presents a news site and a distribution platform that pulls together news and imagery from thousands of sources and organizes and displays it all for you in a way that easily enables you to follow specific topics and see how they’re connected to other topics. By using Daylife, you’ll receive complete information on the subjects that you care about.

I mentioned the distribution platform, and this platform is offered to content publishers and developers in the form of an API that’s called the DayPI. Publishers like USA Today and CNNMoney have already built their own solutions with the API, and you can too. Check out some of what has already been created and then visit the developer site to sign up for an account and get access to the API. Daylife has already done all of the work related to pulling the news together, so now you just have to use all of that data in the way that you want.

If you’re a blogger who’s not a developer but you still want to offer the latest news and images on subjects that you and your community care about, then take a look at the collection of powerful widgets that have been developed for people just like you. Customize them, copy and paste the code, and you’re done. Unlike many of the widgets out there today, the widgets from Daylife actually serve a useful purpose, and you’ll realize that once you see them in action.

News moves fast, but now you and your audience can stay informed about what’s happening thanks to the flexible tools that Daylife provides.
