Your news life is all the time you spend surfing the web following up on world events, your favorite blogs, checking sports scores and so on. NewsLife lets you take control of this and streamline your web viewing to save your valuable time and make the whole experience more fun and rewarding.

It's pretty simple, NewsLife lets you organise all the websites and blogs you get your daily news fix from just like a list of bookmarks. It then goes off and checks the news feeds of those websites and downloads all the headlines and presents them to you - sans ads and clutter so you can pick what you want to read quickly and easily.

You can usually view a summary of each headline - or with some sites you can view the whole story without even having to visit its website - neat!

Most RSS aggregators, as they're known, are aimed at geeks - they're full of features and complexity that either gets in the way or isn't useful to you if you've just got a handfull of blogs you want to keep an eye on.

NewsLife has been designed from the ground up to focus on being genuinly easy to use - it doesn't try and replace iTunes or your web browser, it's designed to fit seemlessly into your Internet experience, and to make it much better.
