With the presence of Internet, we can read a variety of
interesting articles daily. So many interesting articles so that we often save
them by using 'read later services' such as Pocket rather than read them
directly. In other words, the interesting articles we have found in the
internet will accumulate in our Pocket or Instapaper account, and at the end we
feel quite depressed to read it all.
Experience the same problem, an application developer named
Ed Lea tries to give a solution by creating an application called 'Somethinggood to read'. The principle is simple; this application will collect the best
articles shared by your connections on Twitter based on various factors. The
idea is similar to that offered by Nuzzel application, but with different ways
of delivery.
If Nuzzle displays articles in the form of a list,
'Something good to read' application shows full article on the screen, with a
readable format. To move to another article, you can perform swipe gesture to
the left or right.
Swipe to the right if you like the article, or to the left
if you are not interested - there is no setting option at all. This application
will learn your preferences in order to provide a more appropriate content. This
delivery method is applied in order to make us get used to read an interesting
article on the spot, not procrastinate to read it and at the end the articles
will be mounting in the read later service.
Interestingly, 'Something good to read' app can function
even though there is no internet connection. This application will collect and
store articles offline in the Background so you can access it anytime, with
condition that Background App Refresh feature is active. For iPhone users, you
can obtain this application for free through the App Store.
