iNewz Tech App

EDITORS NOTE: As a preamble to this article, yesterday, Apple made a bonehead move by rejecting the Twitter client, Tweetie, based on foul language in Twitter streams. Deja vu for iNewz developer John Gordon as his app was initially rejected due to one of the news sources displaying a profanity in the headline. Click the image to see the full-size rejected screenshot from Apple.

Title: iNewz Tech
Category: News
Guest Author: Dennis

Procrastination. Everyone does it. In fact, this review is the result of a week’s worth of procrastination – “oh the deadline for this review isn’t for another week? no problem, I can just whip something up a few days before the piece is due”. It’s now the night that the article is supposed to be submitted. What am I doing? Watching TV, surfing websites, playing around on Twitter, eating some Girl Scout cookies… everything but writing about this app.

If this type of situation sounds familiar to you at all, well then this app is perfect for you! iNewz Tech [App Store] compiles articles from the top technology websites and brings it all to you in one app. That’s 217 feeds from 80 different sources!

  

You’re now probably asking, “What?? How does that help me?”

Here at KRAPPS, we periodically recommend apps that help you become the very best you can be (ie. Touch Poet brings out the best Shakespeare in you). In this case, we’re just trying to help you become the very best procrastinator. iNewz Tech brings you up to date articles from the best tech sites. Browse from a selection of topics from Mobile to Home Theatre, to even Business IT. Don’t want to read about Microsoft? Look under the Apple section for all your Apple fanboy needs. The app sorts it all out for you! Simply touch the article headline that interests you and you’ll be immediately transferred via the integrated browser to the originating site where you can read the article in its entirety. iTech Newz supports landscape viewing as well as offline reading. So simple – So convenient.

iNewz Tech also has two other sister apps: iNewz [App Store] and iNewz Green [App Store].

iNewz aggregates 600 feeds from 83 different domestic and foreign news sources including New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Toronto Sun, Asia Times and more. iNewz Green provides content from top eco-friendly news sources on the internet including Planet Green, TreeHugger, Popular Science and more. A total of 166 feeds from 96 different sources. Rumor has it … this app is solar powered so they practice what they preach.

Now you know when you find articles that are really funny (like KRAPPS articles) or super interesting (also like KRAPPS articles) and just HAVE to share it with everyone? Instead of jumping through hoops (find computer, located article url, etc.) just to spread the word … use your iPhone and directly send the article to Twitter, Del.icio.us, or even through email! With such a huge array of topics and the endless supply of articles, you can spend countless hours not writing your paper, studying, etc. and procrastinate instead.

So what are you waiting for? Be all that you can be! Get iNewz! Procrastinate!

EDITORS NOTE: We are big fans of Kiss – no, we’re not talking about the legendary rock ‘n roll face painter band – but the concept of Keep It Simple Stupid. The iNewz family is prefect for us – no need to mess with subscriptions or folders or waste hours discovering cool sites. The iNewz app family makes the entire process easy and convenient … giving us more time to do other things thus making us more productive human beings. Hmmm – more productive human beings … one of the many reasons why iNewz is 100% anti-KRAPPS Certified.

FREE iNewz Apps ($2.99 value) To KRAPPS Viewers!
Developer John Gordon was kind enough to provide codes which will allow KRAPPS viewers to download iNewz, iNewz Tech and iNewz Green for FREE. There are 3 codes available for each app. Simply leave a comment at the end of this review, indicating your preference (Newz, Tech or Green) and we will email you the download code.
