You mean like thesite (http://evolt.org/) but without the synopsis/
1st 200 chars of the article body?

Essentially it's a kind of Content Management System you need - we
have a basic one for evolt, but they go up to the million pound mark.
You could also get the slashcode (which is free...).

If you've a vaguely intelligent one, it will also allow you to schedule
updates so you can do all 5 updates on Monday and have them go live
on the appropriate date/time, thus giving you the rest of the week
off to play frisbee golf ;-)

Cheers
