POPSNewsvine Acquired by MSNBC.com I haven't posted anything about this up until now because I had to give myself time to get used to the idea... get over the shock. It looks as though the motivation behind this is to enhance msnbc.com, not to change Newsvine into anything it isn't right now. And it looks as if msnbc.com publisher and president Charlie Tillinghast is well aware and sensitive to the concerns of the Newsvine community. I'm still not sure what to think, but I am hopeful because I think Newsvine is now on sound financial footing, and that's a good thing. Still, even in this state of shock I'm still in, I almost feel like dancing... we've hit the big time and that's very, very cool. And I am proud to be a part of such a vibrant community and news site. Woohaw!
