Flipboard, Circa and Other Apps to Keep Track of the News - NYTimes.com

Excerpt from a news app review

"The two best news apps are Flipboard (free on iOS, Android, BlackBerry and Windows Phone) and Circa News (free on iOS and Android). Both are simply heads above all the competition.

Each one pulls into one place news and commentary from diverse sources — from Twitter to newspaper websites — but they work in slightly different ways. Flipboard mostly uses algorithms to compile its offerings. Circa uses an old-fashioned approach to choose its content — a team of editors. Either will give you a great selection of information."
