Web Content Curator OneSpot Gets $4.2M Boost

OneSpot, which provides curation services so individuals can aggregate and prioritize Web content, has secured a round of funding. “I’m thrilled to announce that OneSpot has closed a $4.2M Series A round of financing, led by Silver Creek Ventures,” writes CEO Matt Cohen on OneSpot’s blog.

Cohen, who launched Houston Chronicle’s chron.com 15 years ago, says the goal of OneSpot is to “make the tools to curate the Web accessible to a much larger audience.”

OneSpot’s customers include The Wall Street Journal, SF Gate, and Houston Chronicle, as well as other sites.
