Bob is a software engineer working at a well-established software company. His social network includes his friends from college, family and co-workers. He is really into the "latest and greatest" technology products, and has been reading everything on the web about the upcoming iPad release. He currently has an iphone, which he uses primarily when he's not at work or front of his home computer. He uses Google+ to stay in touch with friends and co-workers, and Facebook to stay in touch with his family and extended social network. He checks his email in Gmail at least once every couple of hours. He surfs Reddit, imgur and hackernews on his down-time at work. In addition, he's been following political news feeds to keep himself updated on the 2012 US presidential election. Currently he's at home, and he wants to check up on a bit of news and relax after a hard day's debugging. He's decided to give this new application Hubbub a try. He's just finished setting up Gmail, Facebook, Google+, hackernews, reddit, NYTimes and imgur in Hubbub. Now, he wants to start reading his news:

- Bob skims items in the list Hubbub provides, reading items that sound interesting to him
- He finds a long political article that might be good, but is too lazy to read it now and marks it as an item he wants to read later
- He finds a hilarious meme-related picture on imgur, and shares it on Facebook and marks it with a new "cool" category
