Wednesday 15 April 2020





 The amount of news information a person can acess these days 
was unimaginable a hundred years ago.
On the other hand, we still have only 24 hours a day, so the following question must be asked: How do we get the most valuable news possible in a limited time?

The answer is the news aggregation service that changes the way news is caught and consumed. The service of gathering news using the Internet, are sites that allow you to view the content of newspapers, media, blogs, etc. in one place. Let's imagine how the best news aggregator will be on this planet.

News gathering
Each news aggregator must have the ability to aggregate news from different sources on the web.
The main feature of many newsgroups is the size of the news sources recorded in their servers.
This is done by using the RSS feed to extract and track the RSS news feed extracted from the targeted news sources and analyze it.

Sort the news by type
The main goal of the news aggregator is to facilitate the review of news on the web, something that cannot be achieved without effort to organize and categorize the news gathered.

The simplest step towards categorizing the news is organizing its content into groups in a way that allows the user to browse the news according to the group that he is interested in.

Classification is done using an automated workbook that uses a smart algorithm. It detects commonly used words and expressions within a specific category, and on the basis of it compiles related articles in this category.

Multiple platforms and user synchronization
Keeping the service on many platforms like iOS, Android and the web is useful for three reasons:

1- Marketing: Marketing the idea of ​​being able to do something anywhere and get the largest segment of users.
2- Getting better comments from users: Through mobile phones, most of the comments that we can get are comments that express what users like to read, what they read, and what they see as bad in the service. These platforms are the main source of comments for all similar applications and services.
3- Difference of Arab users ’consumption of the media: According to reports from Arab social media, some Arab countries like Iraq have more social media accounts than devices, which means that many users share the same device to connect to the Internet, and this results from Internet cafes Very prosperous in these countries, where the ability to target these people is related to the ability to target the Internet.

the news
Of course, we do not recruit people to watch new news bulletins and summarize them at once! The credit is due to the artificial intelligence algorithms that handle the matter automatically and simultaneously.

These algorithms work to weigh every sentence in the text according to its importance, and then select the most expressive of sentences to give you the butter of the news on a silver platter.

These services and many others are present in an Arab news application that uses artificial intelligence technologies and applications such as meta
