I don't hate Apple news.  Or Google news.  Or CrunchJooJooPad news.<p>What I hate is that every 2 bit blogger posts derivatives of the same piece of news.  Many times this news snippet is devoid of solid facts or hard evidence, which of course causes all the armchair pundits and fanboys to begin speculating on why this news is the best/worst/biggest/whateverest announcement and how it will change life as we know it.<p>Layer on top of that the general karma and attention whoring that is so predominant these days, and the tiniest fart is echoed and amplified to all ends of the blog-o-sphere (another annoying term).<p>I've though about writing a HN-style site where similar stories would all get grouped and rolled up into common topics, with a new-submission throttle (had 5 iPad stories in the last hour?  You'll have to wait 45 minutes to submit the next one).
