"Summarized by Yahoo!" Is Not A Good Thing – Yahoo News Digest Review
Thought I'd try the app again after not being impressed when it first came out. That was a mistake. There was an article about Mexican farmers using fireflies to save a forest. Sounded interesting so I read it. Unfortunately, it made NO sense at all and never explained what the fireflies had to do with anything. I noticed that it had been "Summarized by Yahoo!" so I clicked on the link to read the whole AP story. Aha! Suddenly all was clear. It made me wonder just who is editing these stories and why? Is it a person or a computer program? Anyway, the end result is completely ridiculous. Yahoo, don't waste my time. Deleting again.
