Mixx Brings Early Holiday Gifts For All

December 21, 2007 · Print This Article

Techcrunch seems to have some serious love for the guys over at our local DC startup Mixx. I always seem to get me Mixx news right from them, which is very cool, at least they are getting some respectable love from the big guys.

Anyway, I headed over to the Mixx blog and was shocked to see the new basket of goodies they have delivered just before the holidays. I guess the biggest feature is the addition of public groups, based on topic area. As Techcrunch put it :

For example Mixx users could start a Ron Paul group that only tracks stories about Ron Paul, and Ron Paul fans would then be able to visit this page on Mixx for those links. Digg offers some functionality in this area with friend lists that allows you to track what your friends Digg, but with Mixx, groups are front and center, with popular groups featured on the front page and a link to an index of other groups easily accessible.
Head over the the Mixx blog to see all the details. But wait, there is more. Here is a quick list:

  1. email digests
  2. address book importer
  3. On Deck
  4. Better duplicate filtering

Duncan Riley has some really nice things to say about Mixx.

impeccable management team, an investment from the LA Times, and innovative features such as what has been announced today certainly help make them a serious competitor in the long term

Once again, it is great to see the great press on a cool up and coming local company. Here is wising them an even better year in 2008. I would love nothing more than to see them take a huge bite out of DIGG.
