Today, I'm launching a new version of Inside.com
You can sign up here: http://inside.com
We’ve taken our newsletter content, which reaches over 250,000 people a month, and put it into a social networking site similar to Reddit, Twitter, and LinkedIn.
What this means is that you can now vote and comment on stories in 14 different topics, instead of just reading out newsletters.
You can also submit stories, tweets, or podcasts you find important, which will build your professional reputation inside the community.
There’s no spam, no self-promotion, and no bullshit. It’s all signal and no noise.
You have to log in with LinkedIn during the beta so that we can maintain our “real names” policy.
PS: Here are the 14 topics we are launching with and my profile page. The goal is to make our profile page the best one in the world to represent you as an executive.

I love this product! I keep subscribing to newsletters, but I don't like having to view them inside email because I find so many other distractions while I am there. Great idea to have an aggregated view of the excellent newsletter content.
Is there any plans to allow non-Inside newsletters to post to the feed?
@mattcrail Thanks for supporting Matthew! Anyone can submit any story from other sources now if they'd like... as long as it's not self-promotional or spammy. So if you see a cool article form another NL, submit it and they'll get credit in our feed.
We're in the making people smarter business - whether that's from us or other source.
@peter_nooteboom Thank's Peter! Have you tried using your invitation center yet? Would love to know how it works for you.
@dragos_bulugean thank you! Hope to see you in the community. Send me your profile and I’ll give you a follow.
@dilrajghumman1 Thanks for the support Dilraj! You can send me feedback anytime - alex@inside.com
Also, feel free to invite your colleagues : )
I've been a long time reader of the Inside newsletter, so it's awesome to see you all add the community engagement layer on top with this new web app. Excited to use it & congrats on the launch!
Q: I am a bit curious about the tech stack chosen for this product. Specifically, did the Inside team consider using any of the forum-as-a-service / community management software in the market? What does @jason think about the "community infra" space (e.g. Circle, Orbit, Common Room)? Thanks!
@jason @oscar_hong1 We built this as a propriety software to enable seamless integration with our newsletters, events, and ad network. With that said, big fan of the other community infra products on the market. We just wanted to bet on ourselves with this one and build custom to our needs and growth plans (which you'll see a lot of cool features rolling out on a consistent basis)
Thanks for being a reader and we hope you dig the new social component. Just wait until you see what else is on the roadmap! It's going to be killer
Always enjoyed Inside. This is a great new concept, and I love that the community can contribute interesting links! Congrats @jason
@davor_kolenc Nice! Thank's for signing up. What's your profile url? I'll follow you now
?makers Congrats on the launch, seems like a good idea. What's your business model? Also, can you post stories as well or just comment?
