Today's Webtip: Paper.li

turn Twitter into your daily paper.

Most hardcore twitter fans already know how useful it can be. Yes, Mr.
Obvious is obvious, I know. But even some of the most hardcore might not have discovered just how truly useful it can be. Because if you strip all of the cute little commentary out of a feed, and just provide an overview of the links, pics, and videos people are posting, you can end up with a pretty darn interesting daily paper.

And that is just what http://paper.li does. You can have a separate paper for any particular user, list, or hashtag. The content is then divided into subjects and presented as an online magazine. The site just went out of Alpha apparently, but a lot of people have jumped on it already.

It's well worth checking out.

And to help you out, here are some papers that either are or promise to be interesting:
