If you can make the site focus on celebs instead of normal people you might be onto something — what if you took in all of the feeds of celeb gossip sites?

What's nice about that is that is also much more advertiser friendly...

Interesting idea. I'm not sure how I'd go about recruiting celebs to try the dang thing out.

Honestly, I built this thing primarily for fun -- not sure if it really makes a whole lot of sense from a business perspective.

Searched "97214" (zip code in Portland, OR).

Got a bunch of results from New York City?

It was broken as of... a minute ago. And/or the app has become sentient and is expressing its opinion of Portland.
Well, Portlandia has been known to corrupt code bases.

Looks neat, I'll try to play around with it again later.
