If you prefer to use Twitter as a source of interesting news stories throughout the day, you should try Smartr, a free app by Factyle that filters all of the cat updates and #cairo hashtags from your Twitter stream and instead serves up an attractive and uncluttered collection of the articles your friends and followers are linking, complete with page preview and summary. You can then easily read those articles, retweet them, or even push them to Instapaper to read later.
Smartr’s a fantastic looking app, and best of all, it’s free. Give it a try.
