I like it. Some feedback in no particular order:
- Initially, I wasn't sure how to use the app. Perhaps the main page should be the current day?
- It might be better for the links to go to the actual article, rather than open a popup window containing a link to the article. I like to open links in new tabs, but the current design makes this difficult.
- Pagination would be nice. 20 results are sometimes too few, but I'm admittedly a power user.
- I'd personally love a site that shows a filterable list of all available news articles. One of the options would be to filter them by date, or to filter by term. It's probably a bit heavy handed for the interaction to be a clickable calendar.
- On the other hand, a clickable calendar is a neat way to present news articles. E.g. you could fill each day with a bubble containing most interesting trending news.
By the way, you may want to resubmit this as "Show HN: Open News Digest" with no text. HN penalizes text-based posts (like this one) to discourage people using it as a blog, so you're more likely to get upvotes and visitors with the other format. Best of luck!
- ikariot 10y agosillysaurus3, Thanks for the comments and advice. I like the idea of the landing page being the current day. However, I want to use the pop up to give the option of emailing the article and to give a bit of info about the article before going to the content. I certainly want to incorporate filters. Thanks again
