Artisinal Collections

[iandouglas]

Describe the solution you'd like

I don't have time and energy to read these articles every day, but I’d like to catch up with the best recent content.

Thankfully, I have you. And you love cultivating content. You login to the app and create a new “collection” with a name like “Best JS of February”. Now when you are reading articles in the app there is a [+] button that, when clicked, gives you the option to add that article to a collection.

The collection has a publicly-sharable URL, so that you can tweet it out, I can click the link, and see a listing page of all the articles in the collection.

Later Segment Ideas:

• When I click articles in the collection, mark them as read
• Display which articles I have and haven’t read
• Display how many times each article in the collection has been read
• Allow the reader to make articles as “Not Interested” and grey them out
• Implement some sorting in the listing display like “Published Date”, “Added Date”, “Most Popular”
