News aggregation has either been the success or demise of the newspaper industry, but designer Brendan Dawes has introduced Doodle-Buzz, an illustrative portal to explore the aggregation atop the chaos. Presented at the SXSW Interactive, Dawes has launched his non-linear news feed where you begin with a name or phrase, scribble a line or shape to watch the headlines appear. Keep drawing and the articles display with the link to the original story. Starting the day with a doodle just may make the current news more palatable and definitely keep you distracted!
