Tello - Latest news from over 100 countries in one single page

Hey PH friends!
I love news - and recently I've been consuming lots of world news from all different places around the world. I wanted to aggregate them all in one place to save time, so I created Tello. I hope you guys also find it useful. It currently has news from over 100 countries (and counting!)

Hey guys, Tello is a small news application I created to collect and collate news from > 100 countries in one single place (more to come).

very cool Eric. didnt see 🇹🇹Trinidad & Tobago :(. also might be good to change the select country dropdown to an autocomplete lookup. and stretch goal... allow users to search a term..and see what surfaces in each country on that...alphabetical order on country list wont hurt either.
Eric Bae
@uelsimon ahh! let me go find one for Trinidad & Tobago !! sorry my friend! love that search idea!!

Do you offer an API to get the news articles present? I'd like to create an Alexa skill for my (deaf) uncle, who is a news junkie, in Canada.
Eric Bae
@hasan_diwan API!! yeah, I don't think that should be too difficult.

@eric_bae Would you please let me know when you have it or if you need help designing it? All I need are the headlines, timestamps, and links to the pieces -- can handle the rest.

I really like this! would be great to have the option to filter as not all countries interest me :)
Eric Bae
@raijman Nice one! Let me see what we can do!

This is actually pretty useful. Local news is important but sometimes people need to see what's going on outside their border limits. I see that there are not all countries yet, but it would be great if you could sort the countries in the columns from A-Z for better navigation.
Eric Bae
@cica_laure_mbappe sorting alphabetically - easy!! will add that to our list.

Interesting product - my roommate would love this!
I would really like to create an aggregator like this for RSS feeds in my community... will we eventually be able to create our own?
Eric Bae
@landsurveyorsunite Yeah that's cool idea!!
Yegor Dunn
Great idea

As a Wikipedian, I think I like this. It's going to help me stay up with world news and economic developments globally without a Western reporting bias. I like the fact that I can see each nation report themselves. I don't like the fact that the news are not breaking. Some are 3-7 days old. Do you want to make this a premium version or raise fund to dev it so you can acquire more users then develop a revenue model. I want to be on the ?makers team. Ideas on my head.

I really like this! I hope you can make a filter for one country only

Real nice! Would be great if we could mark certain countries as 'favourites' instead of seeing 100+
