| Summly - A summarised version of a website or article |
I was reading my daily dose of Google Reader articles last night when I came across an interesting write up from The Verge. It was an application developed by 17-year-old Nick D' Aloisio called Summly. Being a news junkie, I immediately downloaded the application to try it out. It was absolutely lovely and simple. In my opinion too, Summly had inspirations brought from other applications.
Here are my reasons why I just love it (and you should too).
- It's very simple and has a minimalist look.
- Love the tiles and colour combinations.
- Nice way of reading full web articles and their summarised versions.
- Availability of the summarised version of the articles when not connected to a network.
- Innovative way of sharing on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter.
- Its a universal application available for the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.
- Its free.
Let me share some snapshots of the application while using it earlier.
