A long and much awaited day has arrived: Select DailyMe feeds are now available through Amazon's Kindle . The addition of the Kindle delivery platform supports our mission to deliver quality news to our audience – wherever, whenever.

The past few years have been an interesting time in media consumption. We have observed how technology has led the way in shifting control away from publishers and into the hands of end users. Kindle, much like DailyMe, exemplifies this shift by empowering readers to select their content, sources, delivery format and schedule. We see Kindle feeds as a natural extension of DailyMe's delivery options.

Currently, DailyMe is offering four news feeds on Kindle with plans to increase this number over the year. These feeds include:

DailyMe Literati : A treasure chest of reviews and news about the wonderful world of books and literature

DailyMe Monitor : A sampler of today’s most interesting stories from hundreds of popular sources

DailyMe @Home : The best stories from landscaping and design to food and wine

DailyMe Better You : From personal finance and consumer news to self-improvement and career

Lastly, as a Kindle owner, I appreciate and recognize the benefits of using an e-reader for reading subscription based content, books and magazines especially when I am traveling. I have advocated the distribution of DailyMe through the Kindle since last fall when I first bought the Kindle. Thanks in large part to our editorial and technology teams, this vision has become a reality.

The DailyMe editors usually devote most of our attention to our bread and butter – the top news and events of the day. But even we occasionally break to enjoy something other than bread and butter. Our latest foray into something more savory is our Holidays page in our Lifestyles section . While we created the page for Halloween, it’s really taken off with the approach of Thanksgiving and Christmas.

You’ll find a delicious mix of stories from leading newspapers on the page, giving you holiday travel advice, decorating tips, recipes and more. Don’t forget to check out the videos, where you can see tips for picking the right wine for Thanksgiving or keeping down costs as you entertain. Bon appetit!

In case you didn’t notice, we’ve added a couple of other new sections as well. Our Opinion page carries a selection of editorials and columns from top newspapers. With the election behind us, we’ve revamped our Politics section to provide coverage of the transition in our The Presidency section and a closer look at what Congress is doing in our Capitol Hill section .

The U.S. presidential election is but two weeks away and you may be feeling overwhelmed by the exceptional levels of media coverage. How do you stay on top of developments that people are discussing? That’s exactly the problem DailyMe was created to solve – help you discover the news that is important and useful to you.

Are you a political news junkie, just want the latest buzz or want to dig into the issues? Our Election section has a full slate of news and information for you. In addition to a main news page and candidate pages, we recently added a page on where the candidates stand on issues such as taxes, global warming and energy. And last week, amid all the chatter about Joe the Plumber, we even created a special page on that topic. Expect more breakouts as news warrants.

Across all of the elections pages you’ll find articles from our top sources, plus video reports and feeds of Twitter comments.

Check it all out in our Election News section.

DailyMe is taking another big step forward today. We’re entering the B-to-B space, making our online news platform available to newspaper publishers and broadcasters looking to compete for eyeballs and ad dollars.

Our new Publisher Solutions suite will let those who run high-quality news sites transform them into advanced online news destinations by licensing the same technology and content that drive DailyMe.com. Publisher Solutions gives publishers the ability to offer their readers novel tools to customize, personalize, aggregate, publish, share and interact with the news that interests them most.

Briefly, the suite allows publishers to:

• Offer its users the ability to personalize the content they consume.

• Provide topic-specific pages that include both site content and/or news from other licensed sources.

• Present related content on every story page.

• Give readers the ability to rank and filter stories using DailyMe's Meme-It widgets, which allow users to categorize news by emotion.

• Let users combine site-based news with user-generated content using an advanced RSS reader.

• Offer various delivery settings and preferences so users can choose their schedule and content format including email, RSS feeds and DailyMe's automated printing feature.

To find out more, please visit our Publisher Solutions page.

Some of the DailyMe team will be at the Online News Association 2008 Annual Conference on Sept. 11-13 in Washington, DC, where we’ll be demonstrating our technology. Please stop by the DailyMe booth (No. 9) if you’re there and we’ll set up a demo.

Just in case you were crazy enough to miss our Launch Party, we're bringing it to you (in 20 pictures or less, that is).

Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate. It was a great night!
