NYTimes.com’s decision to aggregate other news at its new technology section through Blogrunner (which the Times acquired very quietly last year) makes the obvious a reality: in a networked media world where news consumers have access to EVERY piece of content produced by EVERY news outlet, media is no longer strictly about producing and distributing your OWN content. The Editor Is Curator Of ALL The News On The Web.

MindTouch Deki Wiki enables both editors and their readers to do exactly that: aggregate all types of content (news, blogs, documents, images and videos) that’s relevant to a particular topic or story and bringing them into the media property’s site. This not only enriches the site with much more relevant and contextual content, it also leverages the badly stretched resources of the newspaper. Additionally, Deki Wiki easily enables application, data and widget mashups to produce useful, entertaining and informative content that’s dynamic and multi-faceted.
