Hitpad — See What's Up: more reference tool than news app (Appolicious)

Appolicious - One of the latest apps to enter the news-curation market for iPad is Hitpad — See What's Up. Hitpad aims to give users the news they need, seeking out trending topics and analyzing sources, without requiring any effort on the user's part. Users willing to relinquish control of the news they see should like that Hitpad selects topics for them, but control freaks might not like the inability to customize.
