NewsMap makes it a lot more interesting to see what’s breaking the news in the places of your interest.

Traditional news sites serve the purpose but most of the time the news, because of the way they present, become so boring that many times we tend to ignore. It’s the presentation that makes it less attractive to keep a tab on.

NewsMap is an Adobe Flash based website that tries to present the news with a slight twist. It presents the news headlines of your interest with big bold letters so you can visualize what’s happening in the news media.

When you visit NewsMap home page you are presented with a nice layout of top news of the day. The most breaking news are visually enlarged to make it stand out. The news are color coded based on various categories including World, National, Business, Technology, Sports, Entertainment and Health. Countries are listed along the top of the news page. The cool thing about NewsMap is the fact that most of these are customizable which means you see what you really wanted to see.

If you are just happy with the default settings, by all means, go for it. But if you prefer to preserve the custom settings just register your email and password with one of the simplest of the registration forms out there.

Once registered and signed in you can customize the way news is presented to you in NewsMap. Click on the “Settings” link at the top left side of the page. You can set a home view so when NewsMap starts it uses your home view to present you with the news that matters to you.

You can also customize fonts and colors. You can choose to hide the clicked articles which means more fresh content. You can also choose to preview popups.

You can also customize the sources of news that you want to show on your home view. Choose the countries you want to see the news from.

Once customized the home view news will be tailored to fit your needs. In my testing even though the tailored news approach was not much reliable it was working for the most part.

One of the best uses of NewsMap could be to present news on a big screen TV on a living room or reception or lobby halls. NewsMap can really make viewing the news more interesting.

Give NewsMap a try.
