Ripl News

Ripl is a new social network, focussed on sharing with everyone and capturing content together. We’re building a platform specifically to answer the need for a modern news service, where everyone can be a journalist, everyone can report on the things they see, share useful information and decide what’s important together. CONNECT WITH EVERYONE. With Ripl, every user is connected from the start, making it great for sharing important updates you want everyone to know. SHARE THE NEWS QUICKLY, CLOSEST FIRST… When a new Ripl is published, we send an alert to everyone nearby. Think word of mouth, supercharged with the speed of the web. WORK TOGETHER TO BUILD THE BIGGER PICTURE… When a big story emerges near you, you automatically become part of the conversation. Add your own pictures and video and help us capture the most comprehensive coverage of events, so everyone can benefit from updates on what’s happening, direct from those on the scene. DECIDE WHAT’S IMPORTANT DEMOCRATICALLY… We keep track of the stories you’re talking about, and send them out at ever increasing distances as activity grows. Letting news ripple out from the source and defining the big news stories of the day completely democratically. DRAW YOUR OWN CONCLUSIONS… Ripl gives you the news as soon as it happens, unfiltered, unedited and unspun. We provide a platform that lets you have your own say, provide your own perspective and come to your own conclusions. We’re an unbiased, open, democratic news platform and we intend to stay that way.
