About Noozeez
When we first came up with the name and started testing it out, there were three interpretations of it, depending on your perspective:
Newsies – The good old helpful kids in old style newspapers. For those who don’t remember, newspapers are the paper publications we used to use before the internet.
News Ease – News should be easy to get.
No Zzzz’s – For those who see the double-O in the name as a longer “o” sound, the idea is that this blog hopefully won’t put you to sleep.
Luckily, every interpretation worked well.
We have two other blogs, Soshable and Social News Watch. Both have been fun and relatively successful, but there was a distinct sense that having them both out there really didn’t do justice to the goal of having an eclectic mix of stories. One was about social news, one was about social everything else, but seemed to shift towards social news anyway. Not good. So, Noozeez will focus on the news of the world, both popular and offbeat, and take an irregular look at it through our skewed perceptions. Should be fun!
Check out Noozeez often. We will be updating it regularly.
