I've been trying a lot of news readers lately. I use too much time browsing the internet and I thought it would be cool to have an app that knows exactly what I like. By clicking a like button the app puts the words from the headline into a list in preferences. Future headlines that contain the words, for example batman and trailer will get larger headlines like on a website.
The user could also type manually in the words that he or she likes. For example: Cats, mac, iphone etc.

Instead of reading the headline and then decide if I care to read more the app could make the more interesting headlines bigger inside large pictures from the article.
The more «favorite words» in the headline the bigger the headline, picture or tile. Then the user can use less time consentrating reading through lots of junk to find what he or she likes.

The same can be done with words I don't like. Then the tiles or headlines get smaller.

I'm thinking Reeder or Leaf with UI like that.
Maybe I should try Flipboard again.
