The app opens up Safari, but the 2.0 update will rebuild the site. Also, I'll be adding these sites soon:

SlideToPlay
touchApper
iUseThis
AppVee
Apple iPhone School
FreshApps
Gizmodo
Ars Technica
iPhone App Reviews
iPhoneAlley
Lockergnome
AppRater

i prefer how Scoop works, where it loads the data from digg, in the scoop example, right in the app...rather then opening up safari

also would your app process the appshopper feeds, for price drops, updates, etc.

Currently I use google reader for my sites. Tell me why yours is better than that (it's free!!)

I still don't understand how it works. Can you post some screenshots? Or is the screenshot from the app store the only screen it has and the next thing that happens is opening up Safari? Is the app just a bookmark collection at the moment?

yeah, we will include all of AppShopper's feeds too. Also we will have little icons beside each feed a d the ability to edit the app's screen.

Any more suggestions? Again, this is my first applicationever with just a few months of experience.

can you add more screenshots to the store,
judging from the one screenshot up there...could you add themes, or maybe make the tabs transparent black with white text, so it is easier on the eyes at night time

although some users like their apps to be flashlights, i normally browse apps as i am falling asleep

so maybe the option of themes, or the ability to change the look to appease to different users would be a nice addition

Great idea! I'm going to be submitting v1.1 tonight which will include all of those new websites, a new description and more screenshots. After that I'll submit v1.2 with article viewing from within the app, and different themes. Then I'll start working on v2.0.

I honestly can't wait to see where you take this app next,
especially seeing as RazorianFly is a part of it!

[Edit] - Can I suggest a feature for the next version?
Just a capital 'F' in RazorianFly (still all one word) Haha ... Cheers.
