Has anyone had any luck with custom news topics on the Genie news widget?
Just curious...I see there is a section for custom topics but not sure what kind of filtering it uses....was thinking about, for example, putting Pittsburgh Penguins but wasn't sure how well that would work...

Give it a try. It's free to try and if you don't like the results, you just delete the custom filter. I use it for droid, android and get great results.

When I first installed it and used it I had one for apple one for google and one for android.
Simple as typing in a keyword and it searches google news for articles relating to that topic.
How specific can you be? The reason I asked before really trying is because it updates every 30 minutes, it might not always pick up what I'm looking for etc.
