How to “AndRead”…

I was browsing through my favorite feed on my mobile, when I came across a piece of information. It goes like “the information available today will get outdated in the next 2 years. In other words, whatever one has studied in the first year of engineering will, get outdated in 3rd Year.

When we have so much of information floating around us, the more we read the more we are updated. And that’s precisely one of the reasons why “Feed Reader” applications are so popular in the market. This blog aims at providing insight to one of the feed readers developed by ADITI for Android Mobile - AndRead

Once you download it on your Android mobile, it will appear with the below displayed icon.
