A Felirati egy hírgyűjtő, amit elsősorban saját használatra készítettünk és saját ízlésünk szerint gyűjt cikkeket az online médiából. A fő tervezési szempont a végtelen egyszerűség és a kis képernyőn való használhatóság volt. Az oldalt bárki használhatja, akinek tetszik, így, ahogy van. Örülünk, ha mások is hasznosnak találják. Javaslatokat természetesen szívesen fogadunk, és lehet, hogy figyelembe vesszük őket.
Beállítások
