We're all inundated with news, information, and updates and it's sometimes difficult to keep track of it all. To help with this we just launched the Bash feed which brings any RSS and Atom feed so you get Github updates, news, or scientific papers right in Bash.
You can then use the built-in templates to summarize, write status updates, create action plans and more based on the feed items. You can also add the items to a topic so you can collect and organize your information.
Check out this video to see how Bash can be used to draft status updates based on a feed update:
