If you are a fan of the news aggregator Newser you will be glad to hear that the aggregation service has been successfully translated to the iPhone by Interactive Mediums. The application offers similar features to the normal Newser app with snapshots of the news day in photos, headlines, and pop-up summaries.
Newser currently claims more than a million monthly readers and the new app is optimized for the browser of the iPhone. The Newser service is also available on the Blackberry and other similar smartphones.
The app also allows users to share news stories they find from the iPhone just as they would with the desktop application. John Filut, VP and general manager at Newser, said, "Interactive Mediums has helped us overcome limitations we faced on several mobile platforms. With the new iPhone application, we can take advantage of the rich visual capabilities of the iPhone platform -- capabilities that are expected by iPhone users. Interactive Mediums brought deep experience in the iPhone platform and understood our objective to meet the expectations of the mobile consumer in a way consistent with our desktop presence."
