Keen to get the scoop on breaking stories? Looking for a site where consumers get to vote on their favourite scoops? Look no further than Scoopt.

The site is a little bit like Digg, which is a technology news site where the number of Diggs (consumer votes) dictate the ranking of a particular story.

Scoopt takes this concept and has created a number of categories including Entertainment, Health and Wellness, Bargains and Deals, Business and Stocks, Politics, Travel. There are subcategories within each, or you can use the search bar.

You have to register to view stories, which I think is a little annoying, but there are some good Scoopts on the site already. Like the story in this section, about the Anti-cancer properties of beer. Enjoy the festive season !
