TheDayAhead is a Google Apps Script that summarizes your upcoming day's events, events that you have not responded to, along with a set of news feeds that you regularly read, and delivers that summary to your inbox automatically.
The deliverNews() function in the script is the main entry point. This script compiles information from the day's calendar and reads a predefined set of RSS feeds. You can also supply a list of keywords that the script will scan the feed headlines for and use to build a Top Stories list.
Note: to use the script you must enable the Calendar API in both your Apps Script IDE and in the Google Developer console. There is a link to the developer console in the dialog that enables the Calendar API in the Apps Script editor. Select Resources -> Advanced Services, then enable Calendar.
