WHY NEWS HEADLINES?
One of the challenges of getting good information about content and related technologies is that many filters used for news gathering are not well suited for covering the many connected aspects of this industry.  To assist you in your efforts to learn about current events, we pass along to you the same news headlines that we're selecting for review as a part of our daily analysis of these markets.  We hope that this proves to be a useful service to you.
