Google Play Newsstand, originally known as Google Currents, is a source for news updates, including hard news, entertainment and science, available online and through an app. The readings are categorized by interest, and though each provides information in both news and magazine form. Most of the content has a fee, ranging from $1.99 to $5.99. If you’re cheap (like I am), this could pose a problem. The hard news section is free, within limits, making it a better choice for journalists on a budget. Keep your favorite sources in one place using “My Newsstand.” — Nisa Ayral
