RSSBrief is a service that provides 25 word summaries of RSS feeds, with links to the blog entry and the direct links to the originating source. You simply enter the URL of the feed and ask them to “brief” it.
You can also search and browse through feeds they have recently been briefed, all listed on their home page. The service seems interesting enough, but when I tried to enter a URL site, it ran into errors for an unknown reason. Also, does a person have to visit this site every day and keep re-entering URLs into the search engine — that actually seems like more time spent than just going to the original source, esp if you already know the URL. They might want to allow people to create daily “briefs” automatically sent to their email accounts, or to at least post “briefs” of the most popular blogs/RSS feeds out there. The site also lacked any link to get information or learn more about the purpose/origination of the site.
