Earlier this week, I discovered Storify. It’s a clever concept that allows you to create a storyline using social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, Flickr, YouTube and through adding your own images, text and links.

I’ve been playing around with it to document the recent news about Delicious being acquired by the founders of YouTube, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen.

I like how easy it is to search for and embed content, and I can see this being used by sites that use live commentary, to give readers/viewers a visual overview of the basic facts.

Additionally, it’s a great way for companies and PRs to group together positive and negative social media content based on their brand.

Have a look below at the example.

It’s certainly a neat little service, but would you ever use it?
