RSSBrief produces precis er summary
From the people that bought you PayPerPost now comes in Alpha a new service that produces a precis of the posts of your favorite blog called RSSBrief. What is the difference between a precis and a summary? Both are shortened form of an article or post that contains the main points. A precis is somewhat shorter because it can take out minor points. At least that is what the dictionary says.
And it is easy to set-up.
All you have to do is go to the site and type the url of your favorite blog. Then press brief it! and within a few seconds the RSSBrief for that blog is ready - precis et al.
The site explains it as:
RSSBrief turns you into a blog reading bigwig, complete with your very own personal minion that can summarize anything it finds. RSSBrief uses some very slick lexical analysis technology to produce a proper precis of blog posts and other RSS feed contents to let you instantly get the skinny on a post without having to spend a lot of time drilling down into the details. With RSSBrief you can automatically reduce hundreds of pages of blog feed contents to just a handful, letting you keep up to speed with the latest happenings in the blogosphere quicker than ever before.[Source]
The service is still in Alpha and so one is not sure what the final form of RSSBrief would be. Here are few examples:
