Changes at Newsvine – a social news networking site

Newsvine is one of my favorite social news networking sites, where I usually write as well!  It has changed so much in the last two years.  Yet it is not stopping at growing further on.  It intends to go on with its innovative ways.    Btw, it has been acquired by MSNBC and a lot has happened since:
