NewsBot: Autonomy Kinjin from 14 Years Ago Reinvented
July 3, 2015
Short honk: If you want to run a query as you browse, check out NewsBot from Lateral. The system displays “related articles” when you hit a hot key. The system reminded me of Autonomy’s kinjin service from a decade ago. You will need to be into the Chrome browser to use the service. Be sure to turn off your camera and microphone. More information is at https://getnewsbot.com/. Question: Does the user see the relevant articles? Question: Who defines relevance?
