You know when you just want to escape life even for a few brief moments? Or you have some time waiting at the Hockey arena with the kid? We all have our mobile devices and the convenience of having information at our fingertips is great for these moments. This week’s app feature is EXLEY. It’s the latest entry into the news/tabloid world – it’s entertainment news only without the fluff!
EXLEY is a hub for lifestyle and entertainment content providing timely “scoop” and world news from reliable news outlets as well as users. It allows the consumer to “curate” and filter stories that they are interested in as well as create and share their own news creating a community for “citizen journalists” and “social paparazzi.” But the news isn’t just about celebrity sightings and gossip. When I had a chance to skim through the topics I was also able to follow stories on a local and at a global level. I enjoyed the updates on what was happening during Art Basel in Miami. If you’re loving what you’re reading you can easily share it on your other social media outlets as well.
Really? Kanye is annoyed for getting 2 Grammy nominations? **Rolls Eyes**
Why did Lindsay Lohan apologize to Oprah?I’ll have to follow that story now.
Once in a while we like to see what’s going on in the world of celebrity news and I’m sure this app would go crazy during the Toronto International Film Festival! My Instagram and Twitter feeds are absolutely bursting with celebrity sightings from friends! It’s a little indulgent and fun but sometimes we just need that. As long as no one is getting hurt right?
“Consumers now have a chance to become part of a story instead of just reading it and deciphering its meaning through biases,” says Tino Dietrich, CEO of EXLEY Media. “We expect user empowerment and movement to Tweet, share, pin, re-blog and re-post information that has been created and curated by people with similar passion and interests will be the driver of critical mass to EXLEY.”
EXLEY is being used in major cities around the world reporting time-sensitive news from the streets including London, Washington, Toronto, New York, Miami and LA. They are in currently in the works to expand into other markets like Hong Kong, Dubai, and Paris.
