[liberationtech] Should we start a new Stanford liberationtech-news list?

[Yosem Companys]

OK, so how about we create a digest of the day's Tweets on @Liberationtech
and send them every morning? Then subscribers will receive one email a day
and decide if any of the tweets are worth discussing.

Does anyone know of a good app that does this? I've found a lot of apps
online that claim to do so, but the majority are dead.

Thanks,
Yosem
