There are a lot of semi-useless social media tools out there.  One that I am liking more and more is Paper.li.  

In a nutshell, it takes your Twitter feed, and distills it into a front page of a newspaper, so you can scan all the important topics you care about in one shot.  It even splits them into categories like Sports, Media, Politics, Technolgy, etc….

Now, it only grabs feeds from the people you follow, so if you are one of those “uber important” types that only gets followed themselves, then it’s not going to be much good.  And if you follow a bunch of people that tell you about their sandwich, then you’ll have a boring paper.li as well.
