Adding Screen for News and Web Access

Some of the older skins had a screen for current news, sports, etc as well as a browser. How do I incorporate this into a newewr skin?

News are basically RSS feeds. You need to find your feeds and create database for each, next create new screen and create new category "news" that will display your topics, to see details create text field with "category>news>description" text. Also create few buttons to change between your news, to each button assign event "set database" from "category" group with "Category Name" = "news" and "Database Name" = name of your database with RSS feed ("Top Stories", "Tech" etc.)
