News aggregators. We all use (or have used) them, and there is no shortage of selections in the Play Store. Some are designed to be pretty. Some are fully customizable. Some do the customization for you. Then there's newscover, an app that essentially wants to do all of the above.

In short, newscover is a very nice looking, newspaper-esque aggregator that uses what you read to personalize your feed. The developer claims it starts "getting to know you" only five seconds after the app is opened. Not sure how that works, because I usually spend 20 minutes just playing around with settings, flipping through pages, and getting familiar with any app I install.

The developer of popular apps like Tweetcaster and FriendCaster, OneLouder Apps, has released yet another app to its 'Caster' series: ChannelCaster.

ChannelCaster is a new aggregator that adds a social element to the way your news is delivered, much like News360. You can create your own channels, and share them publicly so others can see what your feed is pulling. Similarly, you can browse all other public channels to find interesting content feeds that other users have put together.

The app can pull content from multiple services like Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Facebook, and other news sites/blogs. It offers a multitude of various categories, everything from fashion to social gossip, sports, local, and life, as well as offering quick access to basic information like stocks, weather, horoscope, and more.
