Reading a lot of news-sites is tiring. Being top-informed on Reddit, Ycombinator, Makernews, Datatau, Coinspotting and many more has become a hassle. The Newscombinator combines all those sites and grabs it from a publicly available API.

The Newscombinator is written in JavaScript, wrapping AngularJS and Bootstrap around a RESTful API. It is a sample App to demonstrate the possibilities of the underlying Solr-Index.

Why? I am working on a side project, the News Aggregator, which automagically classifies IT news to categories which were setup by yourself. I think opening the API will follow soon, so I think this is a great first kickoff app for demos.
