Journalists-turned-entrepreneurs\\xa0Mark Little\\xa0and\\xa0\\xc1ine Kerr\\xa0believe the experience of getting news online is broken. (And they should know: Mark worked at Twitter and \\xc1ine at Facebook.) So, they\'re building an app called\\xa0Kinzen\\xa0which they hope can reboot our daily news habit by delivering trustworthy journalism without\\xa0overwhelming us. Afterall, they reason, we have apps to track our sleep, steps, and calories... Why not news consumption?\\xa0But can there really be an app for that?

GO DEEPER:
\\nYou can sign\\xa0up to help develop Kinzen. An ode to Tumblr\\xa0after it bans NSFW content.\\xa0Look up\\xa0which location data those free Android apps collect from phones (and read the\\xa0New York Times\\xa0investigation).\\xa0Blockchain hits the "trough of disillusionment." ConsenSys, the backer of Civil, cuts\\xa013 percent of its staff. Forbes\\xa0asks: will the crypto bear market take down Ethereum? Twitter gives us crypto Christmas carols.
