  I actually like it, but I definitely wouldn't use it. I find all 3d interfaces on the computer clumsy to use without using my hands... so I might use it if I had a touchscreen, but I'd probably just stick with good ol' text RSS.

  Looks good, terrible to navigate or read news. Nice, but useless gimmick. Fullscreen wtf? I wonder what it does for them.

  this just popped up on delicious.

  Very cool, but it seems a bit labor intensive for a newsreader.

  that is nice. but yes, bad for reading a lot of content.

  i played around with it for a couple of minutes, but didn't read a single thing (apart from the titles).

  its not meant for reading the news, its meant for browsing it. the app links you to msnbc.com for the full story.
