Thanks! An archive shouldn't be too hard to implement.

Would a morning briefing include more of a curated selection of news, like the most interesting/most discussed news of the day? Currently I just take the top 5 posts from the main page.

I could easily see listening to such a summary once or twice a day. Considering the pace at which HN is updated, how about two to four somewhat longer episodes per day, with an archive of the past week so that people can catch up? You might also want to focus on certain types of stories, such as those with more upvotes or comments.

In any case, it's a great idea, and I enjoyed listening to the current episode.

Not just the top five, more like http://www.daemonology.net/hn-daily/ which also ensures newness.

Because of that, catching up on several days will also be unique stories.

That's a real useful resource. Thanks!

I was looking into using the algolia API to get the top 10 posts of the last day, but those won't be unique over the span of several days.

A daily update on the best posts of the last 24 hours would be amazing: https://news.ycombinator.com/best

Yeah. You're right.

My morning routine is Checking HN with Coffee. So with your service I can minimize some time to click around and figure out what the root cause is.

I was actually listening to it while making breakfast as well, so the idea of an extended morning briefing resonates with me. I'll look into it, thanks for the follow-up!

If you do this, it might be interesting to publish this as a podcast. Hourly is too frequent for a podcast, but daily would be pretty good.

(Podcasts are just RSS feeds.)

[yunusabd]

Sounds good, I'll get back to you about that!

Podcast/RSS seems like ideal distribution tool?
