The idea: The idea is to create a news aggregator that geolocates the news, it analyses the news and displays an article on a street/city/region (location in general) if it is mentioned in that article. The website will later give you notifications about what is mentioned in the news nearby. The current situation of the project:

For now I have a minimum viable product, I have the website up and running that shows how the news will be displayed on a map.

What I am asking:

It will be really very nice of you if you can give me feedback, any feedbacks even negative ones are really more than appreciated. I know there are many bugs, bad design, lack of content but the question I am asking you is would you use such a website/mobile app if it existed? Do you like the idea? Do you think it is worth it if I finish building such a website?
