Paper.li is a website that let you publish newspapers based on topics you like.
You can create a newspaper just with your Twitter or Facebook account, the sources of the articles are:

- Single Twitter user : add a Twitter username and share all links that person tweets ( example : @jdevoo )
- Twitter List: The links shared for a Twitter List ( example : @kdhungerford/media )
- Twitter #tag : name any #tag and we’ll post the links shared for that tag ( example : #paperli )
- Keywords on Twitter : Key word search and query. Use Twitter advanced search to check your results before you publish
- Keywords on Facebook : Post content based on simple key words ( Ex : climate or “climate change” )
- RSS feed: Add your favorite RSS feed ( the feed needs to begin with http://….. Right mouse click on the RSS feed, and Copy Link to get the correct URL. Paste that URL into your RSS feed)
- Single Google+ user: simply enter the user ID which can be found in the URL of the Google user and we’ll import all future posts from this user.
