I have always been a news junkie. I'm the one who checks the news first thing in the morning from my phone just after asking Alexa+ to give me the top news stories of the day, with CNN on in the background. This seemed like the most effective way to get caught up, but in reality it was pretty much chaos.
Within minutes of waking up, I’d bounce from global crises to celebrity drama to something I didn’t even care about all before my morning coffee. The problem was, rather than being informed, I was being bombarded and overwhelmed. I needed something to streamline the amount of information I was consuming to avoid everything at once.
