“One aspect of serendipity to bear in mind is that you have to be looking for something in order to find something else.” - Lawrence Block.
The Accidental News Explorer is a new type of news app for iPhone that celebrates chance encounters and serendipity. Start by searching for a subject. Once you've browsed the suggested articles taken from hundreds of news sources, tap the related topics button to discover connected topics, which in turn lead to more articles. Each article leads to new things; the more curious you are, the longer your journey will be. What will you discover?
