iPad Curation App

Newsy.com has an interesting take on national stories with an app that provides multiple clip mashups. In our field, interesting that the KU ticket scandal reached the level of national news. There isn't a lot of depth in the narrated pieces - only two or three per subject area per day - but they were interesting. Seems to look for the controversy items that have entertaining or slightly sensational personalit-driven angles - Palin accusing Obama of being cozy with BP or Carville ripping Obama for slow personal action. The app is free and with a dearth of decent iPad news apps that don't have ridiculously high subscription models, might get some traction.
