RECENT NEWS AND READING · Workflow idea

Keep the latest three days of updates in one tidy reading list.

Follow selected publication feeds and gather items that appeared within the past three days. Keep the recent reading list current and easy to scan, while making older entries visible for review before they are removed from the active list.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps readers follow several public feeds in one place without keeping an outdated list of older items.

  1. Choose feeds for the reading list

    Select public publications relevant to the team’s interests and confirm the list has an owner.

  2. Gather items published recently

    Collect feed items from the previous three days and retain their publication dates and source links.

  3. Organize the current reading view

    Present recent titles and links in a consistent format that is easy to browse and follow up.

  4. Identify entries outside the time window

    Make older items easy to distinguish so readers can decide whether they belong in the active list.

  5. Review before removing older entries

    Have the list owner confirm that items are no longer needed before clearing them from the current view.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

A current list of recent items with titles, publication details, and original links.
