| After a couple of days, Google Reader will close prematurely, and the war for his legacy is in full swing. While AOL is testing its own reader, and Facebookis preparing a Flipboard newspaper, Digg released its RSS-reader-it is built into the updated mobile application for iOS (a version for Android in a couple of weeks). The service was sent to development just three months ago and wanted to be released by autumn, but recent events were forced to hurry. This is too noticeable: the reader looks minimalist, even quite simple (the design duplicates the desktop version , which is still available for a limited number of users), it does not have a search and many small details-we have a beta version in which only the most important thing is implemented. Everything works well, but if you are used to Feedly , then there is no point in switching to a new product: it has other goals. Even if the built-in RSS tunes will bring to mind by autumn, they will still remain a side function. Digg is primarily a recommendatory news service that needs additional information about the preferences of the user. With the help of a Reider, users will be able to “vote” for the most interesting articles and it is better to adjust Digg for themselves. If it seems to you that the future of the news for the content specially selected for you, then it is hardly worth it to pass by. |
