Overall Review:
LikeHack is a simple yet powerful tool backed by its calculation based algorithms. It is a tool that provides All information under one window. From Social networking websites to Websites with RSS feeds, it integrates with all seamlessly. However, it still needs some improvement, as the feeds under News tab takes a lot of time to get updated, sometimes even more then 1 hour. But, the favourite Tab updates Feeds comparatively early. LikeHack deserves good points for creating this kind of tool and is worth a try. If they continue improving it further, LikeHack will surely become a popular tool. Check out Like Hack from here.
