1. Easy Online Bookmarks
| Bookmarking Tool | You can save interesting articles and story research with one click, tag your bookmarks to keep them organized, and access your bookmarks from any computer. |
| Private or Public | If you like, you can save your bookmarks privately for your own personal use. No one else will see your bookmarks. Or you can choose to save your bookmarks publicly to influence what others read. |
| For Reporters | Publish2 makes your research and reporting proccess a lot more efficient. |
| For Editors | Publish2 bookmarks can also be published on a blog or web site as “recommended reading” or article references (using an RSS feed of your bookmarks). |
2. A Powerful News Aggregator
| Power of the Link | Links determine what gets read online. Google’s search engine gets its power by interpreting links to content as “votes” for importance. |
| Front Page | Because Publish2 is exclusively for journalists, combining all of the bookmark “links” creates a powerful aggregator of the best articles. The more journalists bookmark a story, the higher it ranks in Publish2’s news aggregation — just as content rises higher in Google’s search results as more people link to it. |
| Take Back Control | It’s like Digg for professional journalists, who understand the news and are experts on their beats. By using Publish2, you’ll help promote high quality journalism and take back control from amateurs and algorithms. |
| For Reporters | You can influence what others read by choosing to save your bookmarks publicly. |
| For Editors | You can use Publish2 as an editorial platform for creating compelling topical news aggregations, powered by the collective intelligence of journalists. |
