NEW YORK (AP) - A news aggregation site will start letting its users influence the placement of articles by voting on items they like or dislike.
Congoo currently pulls stories from about 25,000 news sources and uses software formulas to rank the top ones in about 500 predetermined categories such as real estate and cancer.
In an announcement expected Thursday, Congoo will let users recommend stories not already on the featured list — as long as they are from one of the sources checked by Congoo. And for those already on the list, users can help bump an item higher or lower by voting on it.
