[login to view URL] is a news/blog aggregator targetting Africa. For our development, we need a browser extention that can bring more users to our platform. you can test what we want here: [login to view URL] (you have to scroll to see how to download the browser extension). Once you install it, you can wait 1 or 2 hours to see how it works exactly. We need something like this extension who can : - be installed on every browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Safari. No matter the browser, it should work the same way) - read news pushed to the extension (titles, texts, pictures, countries, date, views, source, ) and push them directly to the installed extensions. The data can be managed by JSON, or we can start by using RSS feeds if it is easier - allow visitors to sort articles by date, or by popularity (number of views)) - manage a configurable update frequency (the frequency at which the feeds are checked for update can be configurated in the admin section, by admins. Not every client can specify its own) - manage differents types of pushed data. Normal data, push by a specific JSON source with a regular frequency, and "Breaking News" pushed right away (with a specific bacckground color) - pop-up when there is something new fetched from pushed data (see how the actual extension is working) - be able to accept some advertising in the pop-up window (those adverts would be small pictures, or javascript). The dimensions of the pop-up where the articles are sorted should remain stable - be able to modify the background of the browser page (this feature shouldn't do nothing by default. It will be use later) - be able to support update directly from our server (the client doesn't need to do any action) - be able to have some statistics (how many people have installed the browser extension, how many people are using it, ..) - be able to use the favicon as logo (I'll give this favicon) - manage "Send by email" (visitors can send articles by email to their friends) - manage "Comments" (visitors can comments articles directly from the extension, with light captcha) - manage both english, french, arabic, etc.. - manage "Send us News or Picture" where people can send us a news or a picture, directly from their browser, without needing to go through their webmail (mail, subject, text, captcha, attached files, send button) - manage offline working (anything the client write is store locally, and synchronized once the browser is connect to the Internet) - put a specific page as "Home page" of the browser (on a regularly basis, based on what articles the client use to read - especially depending on the country the articles are from) What you need to do is to install the actual extension, and see very carefully what it does. What I need is something similar, with some administration capacities (no need a graphic admin backend, something technical would be good for now). To test your extension, i'll provide you a page some RSS feeds (that I know they are regularly updated), and we'll see how the extension is working. If you have already done a similar work, please send me a link where I can download it and test it.
