News and interest feature

Time is the most valuable asset in today’s rapid changing world, so being able to see important information at a glance is a way of not wasting time navigating websites and searching for details.

Of course, as Microsoft states as well, rarely users stops after a few minutes of reading the news and so they find themselves in a circle process of checking that can last even hours:

One of the first things anyone is checking are the news and weather update so having them right there in the taskbar will be amazing.

What starts as a quick escape can often turn into a prolonged process. I might start the day by checking the weather before taking a quick look at some local news or breaking headlines. Of course, I need to then check yesterday’s Seattle Mariners score or their upcoming schedule. Many of these things change throughout the day, so eventually I check again… and again. Sound familiar?

Moreover, the information can be personalized and you can adjust which informations card you want to see and how the should look like.

If you only want to see technology and sports news then you can simply mark only these options and you can even choose from which publication you want to read them from.
