Mashable.com is a news website. It was founded by Pete Cashmore and its primary focus is to present the user with social media news, but it also covers news and developments on entertainment, online videos, mobile, business, technology and the web. This site was ranked as one of the world’s largest websites and it recently acquired Blippr, a micro-reviews service based on the concept that users can review games, books, movies, music and web applications.
The site is extremely user friendly and is loaded in content. It has an option of singing up to receive news directly in your inbox, which a lot of people like since it makes it more ‘personal’. It also allows a connection between Twitter and Facebook, which again creates a more personal feeling to it. Blogging and commenting on articles is very popular and it gives the website a friendlier look, since everyone is welcomed to do it. In all it is a pretty interesting website and the fact that they even encourage people to write for them makes it more motivating in my perspective.
