ABC7 News (KGO) on boxee

ABC7 News (KGO) is the local ABC station in San Francisco/Bay Area. this is a great addition of additional news content for boxee (in addition to the existing CNN implementation).

in general boxee needs much more news content. there is great video content of both pre-recorded and live news, and we need to find a way to bring it into boxee comprehensive news experience.

Han in his own words:

I am very new to Boxee but am very passionate about the future of home
entertainment. The application is my first Boxee app and it provides
an easy access to ABC 7 News online video library, including Top
Stories and Most Popular videos. By the way, ABC 7 News is my favorite
source of video news in San Francisco Bay Area and I always wanted to
watch video through a nice tool like Boxee instead of having to browse
through web pages.

While I have many years of software development experience, this is my
first time developing a Boxee app. I borrowed the basic framework from
the existing CNN app in Boxee. So many thanks to the authors of the
CNN app.
