Major changes:

  • Display 20 top news headline auto-scrolling

APIs provided by Yahoo Finance, Forecast.io, the BBC, and XKCD

How to Run (taken from Hannah's)

  1. Clone project
  2. Get a forecast.io api key
  3. Add a keys.xml file under res/values with <string name="dark_sky_api_key">your_key</string>
