9. Why good for
online Journalism
• let users use the least time to catch up the
news worldwide by trending stories list
• let users compare the opinions from
different news agencies easily
• provide the video which makes the news
more interesting than mere characters
• take advantage of the trend of journalism
on popular social media

10. My thoughts
• User friendly– it is really simple to use and let you get the information quickly. Before I discovered this
APP, I sometimes have to open 4 to 5 news APP in case I miss something. Hash gather information
together
• Well designed– Flat design makes pages look comfortable and artistic
• Rich sources– News agencies’ official accounts and celebrities’ accounts provide opinions on same topic
from different angles, which makes me easily spot the political stance of different media
• Social networking– Hash connects to your twitter account directly so that you can reply or retweet
conveniently
• limited news topic– Hash tries to make people use less time to catch up what is going on in the world,
therefore the global events it provides a day are limited. Normally, it presents around 10 topics a day.
