Fresco: An "Instagram for the News"

Fresco is a new application that wants to be like an "Instagram for the news," according to founder John Meyer.

John Meyer has made a few mobile apps before, but he’s banking on Fresco, a news reader he’s developed over the last year. The idea is that it’s an “Instagram for news; you can discover the news by flipping through these beautiful images,” he says.

The photos have a caption and then include more links from around the Web to provide context. Right now, the app is free in the App Store and Meyer says they have “a great set of early users who are using it every day.”
