Acum cateva luni de zile compania Google a anuntat inchiderea Google Reader, uimind majoritatea utilizatorilor care foloseau serviciul zilnic pentru a citi informatii de la website-urile pe care le urmaresc. Vestea le-a dat competitorilor Google posibilitatea de a construi servicii similare, iar cei de la Digg anunta ca pe data de 26 iunie vor lansa propria platforma, plus o aplicatie pentru iOS. In imaginea de mai sus aveti prezentata aplicatia pe care o pregateste compania Digg, ea oferindu-va un mediu intuitiv prin care va puteti citi feed-urile.
“Over the last 90 days, the Digg engineering team — all 5 of them — has been heads-down building an updated take on the RSS reader. For our first public release, in time to (just) beat the shutdown of Google Reader, our aim has been to nail the basics: a web and mobile reading experience that is clean, simple, functional, and fast. We’re also introducing a tool that allows users to elevate the most important stories to the top.
So with that in mind, this beta release centers on these core elements of the product:
- Easy migration and onboarding from Google Reader.
- A clean reading experience that gets out of the way and puts the focus squarely on the articles, posts, images, and videos themselves.
- Useful mobile apps that sync with the web experience.
- Support for key actions like subscribing, sharing, saving and organizing.”
Digg promite sa ofere noul serviciu in baza unui model freemium, iar asta stim cu totii ce inseamna.
