Web surfing typically involves going to a website by typing its website address (eg: www.cnn.com) if you want to see what is NEW there. And you have to do that for each website you are interested in ! More websites you are interested in, more cumbersome this becomes.
Alertle solves this problem. It gets the updates for you from your favorite websites and delivers them to you in one, powerful interface, where you can quickly and easily browse through them. So in this case, you can get the latest headlines from CNN.com within Alertle! And likewise, you can get the updates from your favorite blogs, news, technology, business, weather, gossip, and almost any other website, even YouTube videos, all within Alertle.
It is a very powerful idea and has been around for a while. It is based on a technology called RSS. We just didn't like the approach taken by some of the existing products and we thought that there has to be a better way. So we went to the drawing board and came up with Alertle's unique 3-panel interface, comprising of big website icons and their content. And we added other innovative features like Feedpacks, Autoplay, Sigma view and the ability to Customize Alertle completely according to your preferences.
And you will also notice that Alertle is very different from most other typical websites. Its interface is extremely rich and fluid and more similar to your typical desktop-based application. It is infact one of the very few fully AJAX-ed, single page web applications available on the web today.
Alertle's purpose is simple: to get you the latest updates from around the web. We hope you will like it as much as we do
