I started working on Breef Daily this Thursday while bored out of my mind on a tour bus with my University's Symphonic Band. It's a customizable mailing list which sends you the top content from the sites you select every morning.
Right now everything is hand curated, but I'm working on some scraping scripts which should automate the process quite a bit and I can do some fancy AI tricks to make the emails nice to read. I'm also working on adding more and more sources every day.
I already have about a half dozen subscribers from techy friends and family, and they are giving me some valuable feedback but seem to really enjoy the content that I'm producing so far.
I would love some feedback on what you think, how I can expand on the business model, or any thoughts you think are worth sharing. Thanks in advance!
Possibly, though you can see that most of the sources I first added were non-political news sources. More traditional news sources were added as a request from the first people who used it. Now I'm thinking about a "balanced news" genre or source which compiles articles from a balanced spectrum of political journalists. What do you think?

Also I like how the payment forms work but literally nothing else on this page.
