During the last months with a smartphone and a 3g I have noticed I read more. I spend a lot of time in the metro and I read. I read about everything, but I enjoy in depth articles on many topics. However, I find it difficult to find good writing or good writers, following 1 or n magazines won’t cut for me, I rarely enjoy the full magazine, just 1 or 2 articles every few months. What I am saying I guess is that I would really pay for somebody to pick good articles for me. I know the internet is full of aggregators, but somehow those are not enough. For instance, I like HN a lot, but it's focus is too narrow sometimes.

Maybe paid article discovery could bring some revenues for magazines/writers? I don’t see much interest in this tough.
