Paper.li makes you editor-in-chief of your online newspaper
What paper.li does is organise links shared on Twitter by your social network into an easy to read newspaper-style format for readers to consume. Developed by a Swiss startup called Small Rivers and situated on the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology EPFL campus, the company is "focused on facilitating the discovery of relevant content and other people of interest on the web".
It neatly takes the links that your network has shared, including photos, videos and text, and presents them in the format of a traditional newspaper, complete with bold headlines and different sections for Sports, Business, Arts and Entertainment and Education, amongst others.
Paper.li describes itself in the following way: "Any Twitter user is thus a kind of editor-in-chief, with the people they follow being trusted journalists. The sum of what is shared by them is thus a unique perspective of what is deemed of interest on the web on any given day. A bit like a newspaper."
