Facebook has announced a new mobile app named Paper that could see the social network control a significant portion of the digital news market.
The app will launch on 3 February for the iPhone in the US and promises a “distraction-free layout” by pulling in new stories from various media publications - both the established and the “emerging”.
Working with human editors, Paper will curate various sections (including sport, food, science and photography) whilst also allowing users to customize their own feed. Traditional updates and pictures from users’ friends will also be available in the app, but they will be kept separate from the news stories.
This is a new app that Facebook are releasing on the 3rd of Feb. it will allow the users of Facebook to look at news stories from the world via FB. The app will have news of all types and from all over the world, as not everyone on FB would want to read all the news, they will be able to customize their feed.
