Hi everyone,
I just made an app that, analyzing tweets in real-time, tells you what are the most shared news stories published by all the main national newspapers on Twitter, grouped in one place.
The idea is that if a news has many shares -> it must be really interesting.
The result is a sort of newspaper for iPhone, where news are ordered by real-time popularity. It's a nice way to read all the newspapers at once, without having to check multiple sites and apps, and also a way to make sure you're not gonna miss anything.
For each news, you can read comments from people on Twitter, post your own thoughts, see the article in the original webpage or fully download it for offline reading, in a text-only format.
The link on itunes is: http://itunes.apple.com/app/id675064803
You can find more infos at: http://newspo.st
This is a very early version of the app. It's available in US, UK and Italy.I'm already working at the next version which will include: 1) A new contextual menu to access different topics such as Sport, Politics and so on. 2) I'll get reid of the registration phase (no more user/pass) 3) Custom topics 4) Push notifications.
Obviously it's free and with no ads. In this first version you need to sign up with an email because I thought it'd be useful, but I promise I won't send you anything.
If you download it, you'll be among the very first users, so I'd like to know what you think about it: I'm looking for first impressions/criticism/feedback in general.
