Comment on Flipboard is acquiring Zite from CNNparent

Comments

That just ruined my lunch. Seriously, Zite is awesome, only "recommender" that actually works for me. Prismatic, Flipboard, everything else I've tried--they all suck. Only Zite consistently gives me things I haven't seen that I'm actually interested in.

Welp, time to dust off my recommender algorithms and build something I suppose. If anyone's interested in joining, ping me.

FWIW, our plan is to integrate the Zite recommendation engine into Flipboard (and import your Zite data). I've love to have your feedback as we build it.

Can you try to at least leave Zite running before you finishing integrate zite algorithm into flipboard? What am I going to do in the meantime without Zite, sigh.

Flipboard is useless at its current state. Please explain this to your new boss. Really appreciate it.

Our every intention is to leave Zite running until we can build something at least as good at Flip. I know it's sad to lose a product you love (it's sadder to lose one you've built), but I'll try my hardest to make it up to you.
