Alltop's New Feature



I've written about Alltop on a previous post.

While reading the Read and Write Web as I normally do every morning I found an article that Alltop is becoming customizable. "My Alltop" lets you choose what sites listed on Alltop you like the most and pull them together on to your own custom Alltop page.

You can pick and choose from any topic, create your own order of the subscriptions, and even share your custom collection with others.
