User reviews

I'm seeing the most recent news articles published from free press, detroit news, lansing state journal, livingston daily, battlecreek enquirer, the times herald, and hometown life all in my browser tab! It's a great way to get a daily dosage of the news in Michigan.

Makes me slightly less productive at work because I'm constantly reading news articles that pop into the grid view. But that's not a bad thing (don't tell my boss)

This is now my default background for new browser tabs. Really highlights the great news photography, and I often find myself reading the news and forgetting why I opened the tab in the first place. This is a great extension if you spend a lot of time online and want an easy way to keep up with the news.
