For traders it is most important that they get breaking news as quickly as possible - so having the stories in chronological order rather than showing the ‘biggest’ story at the top is more important

It would be more interesting to scan blogs for any company news that is market-sensitive, then having a Techmeme-like system to break this news rather than relying on one of the big sites or agencies to pick it up first and then only showing it 15 minutes afterwards. Most traders are subscribed to one of the wire sources anyway, so they will know this news before Stocks.us displays it

They must be using either Ticker based or registered company names filtering present in all articles. Many companies filter by these two elements. Look at boardcentral.com - extracts messages from major boards based on the ticker, and compiles popularity indexes based on tickers’ popularity, good resource too.

Anand - This is clearly, by no means a up to the second news station for stock traders, but more of an interesting homepage to keep up to keep up to date with stocks. Probably a good place to go after the market’s closed and browse around news listings for said stocks.

You need context and compliance. Seeking Alpha is a much better choice.

Hey, this is really cool. I don’t think it is going to be a MAIN resource for traders, anyway it can surely help.

As an active trader, in it’s current form, I don’t see the use in the site.

The site seems quite organized.
Its a good site, I must say.

The site updates from media every 15 minutes..And the meda themselves might take quite a few time to report the major breaking news on their website. Not a good idea to depend only on this when you are trading..I would rather stick to the Business News Channels on TV..

Google News is using a similar technology. It is probably a form of Concept Search Algorithms.
