If you’ve been paying attention this morning, you’re perhaps somewhat aware of a program Microsoft has in place called Mobile Acceleration Week (part of its BizSpark program), where 12 hand-picked startups can access hands-on support and training to build compelling apps for the Windows Phone platform. MAWs happen all over the world all year long, but I was lucky enough to catch up with some of the participants of New York’s Mobile Acceleration Week, and was pretty pleased with the apps I saw.

Available today on both iOS and Android, the updated version of Feedly features a new look akin to apps like Flipboard, with an emphasis on a clean interface and big, bold images. By combining this with the relative flexibility of RSS, the developers believe that the app now offers the best of...

Zite, the CNN-owned iPhone and and iPad app offering aggregated content that’s personalized to your interests, launched a big revamp back in December. In some ways, Zite 2.0 was a success — for one thing, article views per user per day went up 11 percent. On the other hand, co-founder/CTO Mike Klaas and Senior Software Architect Emuye Reynolds told me that there was definitely some pushback from…

When the news-summarizing startup Summly shut down last March, it was easy to imagine the company had simply been swallowed by the Yahoo machine. Like so many founders before him, Nick D’Aloisio had sold his company to Yahoo only to see it shuttered soon after. Its core technology was absorbed into Yahoo’s news app less than a month later, used to summarize the day’s events.
