I suggest you ...

  3. Könnte man die Feed-Quellen von Freunden/ anderen Nutzern einsehen?

    (z.B. mittels der E-Mail-Adresse die der jew. Benutzer Freunden/Bekannten weitergibt oder seine Liste veröffentlicht/ man danach (od. nach Interessen) suchen kann?

    Danke, das ist ein geplantes Feature. Nutzer werden ihre persönliche Zeitung, also ihre individuelle Zusammenstellung von Feeds, veröffentlichen können. Außerdem werden Nutzer Profile haben, die es anderen Nutzern dann ermöglichen, sie zu finden und einzuschätzen, ob ihnen deren Feed-Auswahl gefallen könnte.

  4. Allow others to see *your* view and not default when you share.

    Sharing the link only sends them to a new user's default screen. Not really sure why, but I want to share my chosen stream of content with my team at work. How to do this??

    Thanks for your message. Apologies for the delayed answer.

    If you send someone the URL from your browser’s address bar they will always arrive at the sign up screen. Currently the only way to share news is to post it into your favorite social network’s activity stream by using the small Share icon on the top right of every news story in Good Noows.

    The feature I think you are looking for is actually planned! I want to enable users to share their whole Good Noows stream – their personal newspaper if you will – with their peers. But this is not yet possible.

  5. flipboard-like twitter/facebook subscription: load links shared by friends on facebook/twitter

    load links shared by friends on facebook/twitter.

  6. Add more countries

    I like what you are making here! But I do not want to read the Spain news just because I talk Spanish. If you could add more feeds according to countries and not to languages it could be nice!

    You are so right! I know that you are not necessarily interested in El País when you are eg from Latin America. We’ll try to fix this asap. In the meantime you can of course manually add feeds from all your favorite sites. Thanks.

  7. put most read topics/feeds at the top

    When you click on a feed it should keep track of the feed or key words in the feed so when new items related to it comes out they will be shown first

    Thanks. We are planning to recommend articles to you that might interest you and also to give you the option of sorting your news stream accordingly – based on what you have read in the past and based on other factors. But we’re not there yet. Please bear with us. Cheers.

    Good idea.

    Do you have by any chance a feed/cast URL that has mp3s in it’s items on a regular basis?

  9. add the possibility of showing source filters in the left menu

    Basically, have the source filters displayed in the left menu, similar to Google Reader. This would limit the amount of clicking needed to view specific sources within the same folder/grouping.

    I like the idea. I’ll work on this asap but need some time to figure out a polished user interface (better than Google Reader’s)

  10. Ability to post to multiple social sites at once (from within Good Noows).

    I like to cross post to Facebook, Twitter and Google Buzz all at one time. It doesn't seem that the current setup allows for this.

    Share, bookmark/note/readlater, like/plusone… to multiple sites is definitely a planned feature. Thanks!

  11. Arabic Support

    Hi,

    It's a nice service especially you will add google reader to it BUT it need to support other languages in Mac OS such as ARABIC.

    kindly support the Arabic language in Mac OS to benefit those who speak it this language.

    Thanks ..

    It would be nice if he put the Portuguese language as an option, and a mobile version of the site. With the closing of googleReader, Good Noows and the best option, beautiful and well-resourced.

    Hi Carloz, thanks. We are working on a Portuguese version right now. I hope I can release it in the next couple of weeks. Would you be willing to help translate the app. If yes, please request access to this document http://bit.ly/translategoodnoows

    Native mobile apps and an improved mobile web version are also planned. Please feel free to vote on the respective ideas here in the forum.

    Thanks.

    Gracias por la sugerencia. Estoy de acuerdo y ya tengo atajos de teclado en nuestro backlog. Más votos para esta idea?

  15. View original feed source

    It would be nice if I could somewhere find the link for the source of any of the feeds I have, so that I can share the feeds with friends more easily.
