Every morning, millions of investors wake up and do the same thing: check stock prices, scan the news, look at what's moving in pre-market trading. I was one of them. Coffee in hand, I'd hop between Yahoo Finance, Bloomberg, Twitter, and a dozen other sites, trying to piece together what happened overnight. One day I thought: What if I could automate all of this?

No more information overload. Just a clean, personalized financial briefing. You can see the live result at finance.pzhng.com.
