You realize the app recommended is the Guardian’s and uses updating notifications to present in a predictable manner and context? This seems like an improvement in user experience over keeping this in a tab along all the other tabs and having to meander past your regular distractions, many of which might present results in a less restrained manner than what is being advocated for here. It seems like you saw the word app, made a throwaway, and ranted about the word app.

I agree. It's thoughtfully done and easier than refreshing a web page. Not worthy of the shade thrown, IMO. If you don't like it, don't use it.
