Folks, you’re going to love this website once us Beta users get our suggestions posted.
There is NO advertising, just like old Fool in its inception. It’s format allows any member to post video, photos and news like the new Fool.
Here’s the big difference between Fool and post.news:
It appears, first glance, that you pay a penny (or less) for every article you read. (I don’t know if this is some kind of token deal where later I accrue tokens for posting relevant news, and then get to spend the token on acquiring looks at NY Times, WaPo, WSJ, etc. As you read in my welcoming letter via email yesterday, I start with 50 “points”.)
Here’s the mindblowing thing: the whole article pops up on your screen with links embedded.

This would be four screen’s worth of this article breaking down who is vaccinated and who is not:
The community is filled with news people. Dan Rather, for instance, has set up shop there. He’s the one who turned me onto it in a Twitter exchange. He didn’t tell me the whole articles appear, okayed by news outlets and affiliates. My thinking is they (the news organizations) will make their “tokens or USD” on every view + with blue embedded links, you can fly off to their real websites, read some ads, and rea more. Maybe. I don’t know. Day 1 on the learning curve.
But I had to share that realization it is called Post.news for a very good reason.
