Frequency - Service of the Month
This month's freeware feature, an appealing mix of web-based and app-based
media, offers a convenient way of experiencing the latest online videos
tailored to individual tastes. Gentle Subscribers, who find themselves spending
a little too much time watching YouTube cat videos, may enjoy branching out to
follow their other interests.
"Watch the Internet. Just like a TV. ... Frequency is an amazing new way to
discover and watch videos from your favorite online sources, turning the
Internet into TV. Frequency gathers the latest videos just for you from
Facebook and Twitter, from news sources like CNN and the New York Times, and
from thousands of other websites and blogs and lets you watch everything in one
place. ... It's easy. And it's free." - from the website
Enhanced by a stylish yet simple to navigate design, this clever concept
encourages users to select their favorite websites and turn them into streaming
program channels. With the option of choosing specific videos or playing a
continuous flow, the service can be customized to suit individual preferences.
Frequency works not only in a web browser but offers a number of apps for a
range of Apple gadgets and Samsung Smart devices, while an Android option is
promised for the near future. Top Picks from Frequency's editors serve up
buzz-worthy videos, and an algorithm which learns individual preferences over
time, delivers relevant suggestions predicated on an individual's past
selections.
