While some hide their content away behind pay-walls other throw open their content for all to read
A free app that delivers the latest headlines from an established news outlet in a presentable manner has to be a good thing.
The London Evening Standard app is just that, it gives you access to the latest headlines happily split into the standard categories by a well-designed scrolling tab bar. The main headline page is scales perfectly or as well as the Windows Mobile typeface engine permits and the same goes for individual stories.
The app caches stories so they can be read offline and the amount and how often this should be done can be controlled through the comprehensive settings menu.
To help get some self promotion it does offer the ability to share stories on the most common social networks including Twitter, Facebook and Delicious. It’s effective, quick and importantly makes reading the news easy.
