Gawker to Give Readers Tools to Reframe Headlines

Gawker founder Nick Denton has complained in the past about long headlines keeping good stories from appearing in search results. In a move to help crowdsource headline writing and expand sharing, Gawker has plans to roll out a new tool that will let readers tweak headlines and reframe stories before they reblog the stories themselves.

To do so, you have to sign up for a Kinja account. Kinja is Gawker’s beta news aggregation and discussion platform. It picks up the top stories from across the Gawker network and serves readers with a kind-of digital front page where they can read the best performing blog posts.
