"netscape" news and stories

Using the new Netscape from a Slashfoodie perspective

NEW NETSCAPEWe've mentioned the new Netscape here on Slashfood before. In case you haven't heard, what used to be an alternative web browser to Internet Explorer, netscape.com, got an extreme makeover in mid-June and has become a social bookmarking site, similar to del.icio.us, digg (technology) or flickr (photos), but for news. In case you're not familiar with social bookmarking, it is the concept of users collecting bookmarks of their favorite websites, and sharing them with the community. Users can collect, categorize, and "tag" bookmarks, which makes it easier for other users to find similar bookmarks. On sites like digg and newsvine, users can "vote" on each others' stories.

Over on Netscape, it's mostly about news, but users can also submit stories in a number of "channels," or categories - from Art & Design to Careers & Jobs to Health & Fitness to Popular Videos. It goes without saying that Slashfood's favorite channel is Food & Travel, but we'll get into more detail about that shortly.

All things ketchup on the new Netscape channel

I have just been playing with the new netscape (read more at download squad) and ran across this story on the Food and Travel page.

It is for a competition to design a tomato ketchup bottle label. "Oh fun!" I thought - I always enjoy tinkering with Photoshop and thought I would give it a go, especially as it kind of ties in with my foodography theme of Brand Awareness over on flickr. Some great designs have already been submitted and it certainly got the creative juices flowing (not to mention the gastric juices so I am off to make some burgers).

Then I re-read the comprtition guidelines to see that it closed in October last year. Ho Hum. Perhaps this new netscape channel needs more input from users. So I settled on reading a post about the correct way to pour ketchup instead!
