Summary

Analyze keywords

News Intermix has a database of ~900 geographically-diverse English-language news sites. Tell the extension what your daily news site is, and enter the percentage of visits you want to be redirected to a random news source. It's a non-fawning user interface that can break your habitual spatial tendencies.
