What is Feedly?
Feedly is an app that gathers together RSS feeds and translates them into a web magazine.
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary. These feeds publish updates made, or new content uploaded, to websites. These feeds can be gathered together and presented through a feed reader, which is what Feedly is.
The app presents headlines, introductory paragraphs and images (depending on the display option you choose) that you can scroll through. By pressing on an article of interest, you can read the entire text.
Sounds simple. What's so great?
It is simple, which is partly the appeal. The best apps, in my opinion, are those that complete a simple task extremely well. Feedly is one such app. By aggregating so much content, spread across so many sites, I'm saved a whole load of time, and I've got a constant, concentrated source of interesting, relevant reading material.
