I've been pretty happy with Charged (www.char.gd). Nicely summarized articles on the tech news for that week, with links to the originals and links for further reading.

#62I found myself overwhelmed by the sheer amount of content coming out of most places, so I created one that focuses on technology and reducing noise on a weekly basis - about 7,000 subscribers now: http://char.gd

#69For tech I'm honestly trying to keep up less, I want more time in my life to read shitty fiction etc (and you know, spend time with humans I guess); I've spent the better part of a 15 years keeping up _too_ much IMO. On nothing to do with tech: I'm desperately trying to find something that covers general world news without too much of a US slant, in a nice concise way. Next Draft (mentioned elsewhere in this thread)…
I've subscribed the Quarz RSS feed (not the daily newsletter). I am mostly pleased with their articles. They do have a weird obsession with women's issues, though. It's not that I don't care about these but articles on this subject are often a bit fluffy for my taste. Example: http://qz.com/599694/a-peek-inside-modern-day-elite-kitty-pa... (I read that article two times and still don't understand why "Kitty Parties"…
Kitty parties are a huge thing for women :) It's a women-only kind of thing, mainly. Quite popular in India too (probably inherited from British colonial times), at least among the married women crowd. To try to describe it, I'd say that for women, it is something like "girling out", similar to geeking out or such terms. Meaning doing something you like, possibly intensively (along with others).

Thanks for the suggestions -- looking into them now. Clever idea to sign up for a site's weekly email instead of skimming the site. I used to sign up for an HN newsletter that'd only show the top posts. I thought that was an effective way of pushing only the best content to me every few days. Realized later that I enjoy reading a some articles that didn't get a lot of upvotes. I also tried to create an open google do…
I've been thinking about setting something like this up, but over email. Anyone who opts in to the mailing list would be able to submit a link+description, and once a week some software would automagically send out an aggregated email to everyone who opts in. The problem is getting it to the optimum size. If it's too small, it won't work because nobody will want to post. If it's too large, then the signal-to-noise ra…
That's a good idea. But had you thought of making it on any topics at all, or for some domain?
