I had not considered zoom functionality at all. I'm not sure that it's possible to specify that an element shouldn't be resized (the menu), I'll have to investigate.

Your suggestions are great, I will try to implement them, thanks.

The more I use newsola, the more I like it. Do you have a donation page? I will gladly cough up $$ for features I like.

I'd like to be able to get the unique union of two feeds, i.e., the union of

www.newsola.com/#/ca/tc

and

www.newsola.com/#/us/tc

without any duplicates.

That way, I would have three bookmarks:

http://www.newsola.com/#/ca/w,n,b - my default Canada-centric news page

http://www.newsola.com/#/ca/tc/UNION/#/us/tc - for tech

www.newsola.com/#/ca/s/PLUS/#/ca/e/UNION/#/us/e - for sports and entertainment (emphasis on CDN sport, i.e., more hockey, less baseball, with US and CA entertainment - in fact, I could add Britain too, e.g., to keep up with Blake's 7 and Red Dwarf news).

Make any sense? Not sure how this might work, but I'll play PHB and throw impossible features at you as a challenge! :->

(I'm not sure why "Romney, Santorum battle in Michigan" is such a large business item in my CA/B feed, but OK, I can live with that... :->)

Combining multiple countries shouldn't be a problem, but I'll have to modify the UI a bit.

Sports subcategories I've looked at as well, but it starts to get messy and I wanted to keep everything simple.

I don't think I could accept donations, but I'll try to add those features when I have time!

Thanks
