  • Curate.me Sends Daily News Directly to a User’s Inbox Based on Personal Interests, Social Networks
  • Former XYDO Brief was Invitation-Only; Curate.me is Open to Public
  • Curate.me is the Only Personalized News Service that Generates Content from Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and LinkedIn

PARK CITY, Utah--()--XYDO announced today the public availability of its popular XYDO Brief news-via-email delivery service under the new name Curate.me. The move comes six months after XYDO Brief launched and includes web content sources ranging from news, editorials and blogs to almost every social network. Now, with the relaunch of the service as Curate.me, it boasts up to 500,000 such articles per day. Curate.me also brings more than three million “curator contributors.”

Shortly after its initial launch, influential blogger Robert Scoble told TechCrunch “I love XYDO and have been using it more lately for news.”

Curate.me is the only personalized news service that generates content from a user’s complete social graph. The service pulls news stories and other content from popular social networks such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Google+. Also, Curate.me uniquely allows users to create detailed categories in order to capture content most relevant to them. In addition, all links generated by Curate.me go directly back to the original publisher.

“In light of Summify being shut down, its users will be searching for a new way to receive their personalized news,” says Eric Roach, CEO of XYDO. “Curate.me will fill that gap by offering the most comprehensive news-via-email delivery service in the industry.”

“We decided to re-release the daily news brief under its own, totally consumer-focused brand because people love it so much,” says XYDO co-founder Cameron Brain. “Our users know we go a lot deeper than any other service providing personalized news via email. Unlike the competition, Curate.me incorporates a user’s entire social graph.”

Among Curate.me’s faithful users are such tech luminaries as Walt Mossberg, technology editor for the Wall Street Journal; Fred Wilson, a managing partner at Union Square Ventures; Eric Schoenfeld, former editor at TechCrunch; Mashable’s founder and editor Pete Cashmore; and renowned web design guru Jeffrey Zeldman.

“XYDO Brief, now Curate.me, truly has become an integral part of our users’ lives, helping them to filter out the noise and get to the good stuff, the content they should be reading on a daily basis,” adds Brain.
