Storify

Twitter is full of pithy, smart stuff, much of which is seen by relatively few people before it is buried and forgotten. The best of it is worth preserving and sharing more broadly. Enter Storify, a clever service that lets you bundle up related tweets, TwitPics, Facebook updates, Flickr photos and other elements onto one page. You can add your own commentary and publish the assembled package on the Web. Even professional newsgathering outfits are experimenting with Storify as a new way to report on major stories like the London riots.
