Today I learned: Pulse was apparently installed on my Kindle Fire for the past 2 weeks. Pulse is some kind of news app that I've never heard of or used before.

Things I Already Knew: I can't find out what Pulse is because my Kindle Fire doesn't support a proxy.

What you might not care to know: Next to gmail, pulse is probably my most used app on my android phone. This is largely because much of my infotainment reading is done on the subway with no connectivity. Pulse caches news stories from various sources to your device so you can read offline.

Sounds cool. I'll have to check it out when I get somewhere the kindle can actually connect to the internet. Pre-bundled apps have a hard time... I automatically assume if it's installed from the vendor that it is corporate sponsored spam so it's as good as invisible to me since I've trained myself to completely and compulsively ignore the icons. (I can't even remember having seen Pulse on my Fire lol)
