In a way it's a sort of hunter-gatherer, hunting out news in feeds and gathering them up for you. A little reading about hunter-gatherers on Wikipedia tells me they lived in the Neolithic era. A little trimming and voila. Neolith means "new stone," incidentally, which is a reference to the Stone age, thus a neolith is a new tool.

I love PF, but it really needs some help and the most recent update (how long ago was that?!?)really screwed with things so I had to back it off a bit.

NewsNow is good. NewsQuest would work. PF is about the only app left that is still translated for me. I've written the new owner a couple of times and like you got no respnse. While I own a licensed copy of NNW its not as functional for me as PF is. NewsSpy is what popped into my mind first. NewsNow is good. NewsQuest would work.
