There's a "new way to get on Techmeme ". It's called Twitter , have you heard of it? All you need to do is send a message on the micro-sharing service that begins with "Tip @Techmeme" or "Tips @TechmemeFH" (its firehose) and the website, which aggregates news stories from across the web and determines which ones are worth featuring on the site and also detects links and relations between stories, will consider the article to be posted for many tech fanatics and professionals news reporters to see. And you'll get credit with your Twitter id too! This, of course, is a direct result of the recent hire of a human editor at Techmeme, which essentially came down to the popular website giving up on fully automated news .
