Zite is a powerful news reading iPad app with many excellent features. It works almost like a "Pandora news" that gives users serendipitous resources based on user interest and input.
Zite takes many things into account when surfacing news. It integrates Facebook and Twitter along with inputs that readers are presented within articles. Yet, Zite is not just a feed reader or social aggregator the way Flipboard is.
Zite's backend is built off of Worio, a social search "discovery engine" designed for serendipitous content discovery. As such, it crawls content as much as it uses direct feeds from users' social accounts.
