2. Project Concept Internet not only brings the information-exploding Era, but also the faster and faster speed of life. Booming knowledge and ideas surround us as electronics flying around nucleus, and it is unbearable to wasting lot of time to dig into the mass to find the useful one. We are so sensitive to efficiency and simplicity that it will make us upset and complain for spending 5 min on things that we think can be finished in 3.5 min. Grandfather would spend the whole afternoon on reading newspaper, and it will be too much for us for using half and hour on it. But meanwhile, we need those information, more specific, more diversely, less time, less energy. That is how comes the idea of Grid Reader for us. It would be an efficient, instant and attractive application for people to access the most important and the latest information in the rapid world. Users customize the news walls that only belong to themselves. By applying the RSS skill, Grid Reader gathers news and information from the worldwide. Not only words but also images, even videos of news can users gain. Just few minutes, users will get the most important information. Besides, Grid Reader allows users save their news and share it with others. Integrating social networking is also a feature of The Moment. Users can only gain the updates of people they want to follow. Different to general social networking application, Grid Reader just shows the status of people users care of. It helps filtering unnecessary information. More than saving time and energy, The Moment will give you the fantastic experience when using it with beautiful interface and simple operation. The device of Grid Reader would be iphone and ipad and completed by Xcode developer toolset. The interface will be human-based and the operation will be combined the technology of gesture on iphone/ ipad. In the advanced version, Grid Reader should operate on any portable device and website.
