About
Dailyweb.org is an independent news project where
the public can read, vote and submit the most significant news. The
purpose of the site is for all of us to mutually assist one another
in finding the most noteworthy news and opinion of the day, week and
month. Dailyweb.org is essentially powered by the involvement of its
members, thereby encouraging diversity of news stories and sources,
by highlighting both mainstream as well as minority viewpoints.
How To Use This Site
- Read articles that others have recommended by clicking the
headline on the Daily, Weekly, or Monthly pages. You can also toggle
between the news and opinion tabs.
- Vote on articles by clicking the day's, week's, or month's
#1 button. Users may vote for articles only during the current
period; i.e., only during the day for the top article of the day,
only during
the week for the top article of the week, only during the month
for the top article of the month. The time at the server (US Eastern
Time
Zone) will determine the date and time. Some measures will be incorporated
to limit users to voting for only one article in a given category
(daily, weekly, monthly). Voting for an article for a day will automatically
count for that article for the week and month; however, voting
for
it as the top article of the week (or month) will carry more weight.
- Submit other articles for consideration by
selecting "Submit" in
the navigation menu. Then you may choose to become a dailyweb member
by selecting the new user registration link where you will specify
your
login email and four-digit access code. Unregistered users may still
recommend articles or news sources, which will undergo a manual approval
process. Please remember to correctly identify the article as news
or opinion when submitting.
- Click any source in the list of sources to browse that site.
