Going Open with Website
Jan 3, 2012
We have decided to make Readrz.com website open for access by anyone. Not all of the features we wanted to implement before the first release are ready. The features still being in progress are:
- Search
- User profiles
- User favourites
- iPhone/Android App
However, we have decided to go ahead and open the current website to wider audience anyway. The current magazines available on the website are refreshed every 6 hours. In the future, this process can be made faster, including the option for live updates on user selected stories.
We also have a better algorithm lined up for funding the evolution of stories over time to capture more time-context-dependent articles (based on what was going on at a particular point in time). We expect the ranking of articles with regard to news stories over time will be more precise and context dependent with the new algorithm.
