=========
Python script to get top news headlines and links, and top news keywords (courtesy of AlchemyAPI) directly to your Gmail inbox in a few seconds.
Getting Started
===============
You'll need:
- [An AlchemyAPI Key](http://www.alchemyapi.com/)
- A Gmail Account
- Python installed on your system
1. Follow the steps [here](http://www.alchemyapi.com/developers/sdks/) to get your AlchemyAPI script working
2. Edit lines 14, 47 and 48 of newsflash.py to use your own private Gmail credentials
3. Run ~python newsflash.py
