Pulse News for Android is an Editor’s Pick on the Android Market this week, and there are lots of reasons why. Pulse aggregates posts from your favorite blog and news sites, then organizes them into a customizable feed. Pulse lets you select content from a variety of sources including The Atlantic, Gawker Media publications, Associated Press niche content, and more, then consolidates the latest stories into your home page feed, complete with thumbnail images. Maybe because so much of my favorite media are represented in this app, I can’t recommend it highly enough. Organizing your feed is really easy, as Pulse News is extremely customizable and intuitive. You can even adjust your font size without having to pinch and zoom, and going back to your home page is as easy as tapping the app’s icon. Pulse also makes it easy to share content with your friends via email or social media. If compelled, the only criticism I’d make is that I’m more used to scrolling to new content vertically, and the Pulse feed appears as a horizontal timeline. Otherwise, the only downside to this app is the amount of time it can sap from your day!
