Articles like this remind me of a website idea I had: web-wide mostly human curated collections of articles on something, tracking the progress of something over time and giving a summary. I feel like it's too easy to see something interesting that you'd like to follow but then not have any reasonable way to do so. You can do things like Google Alerts, but you need to choose the right keywords and would probably get a lot of false-positives.

(My example is always an article I read about a decade ago about mouth bacteria which caused no or minimal cavities but could also overpower the normal bacteria, which if introduced would make it so you virtually never needed to go to the dentist)
