Once you've got Awasu installed, the first thing you will want to do is subscribe to a few channels. These are published by web sites to let programs like Awasu know what their latest stories are. Awasu will check your channel subscriptions on a regular basis and lets you know when it finds new stuff.
When Awasu is run for the first time, you will be shown a page that gives some channels you can get started with. You can always show this page again by choosing from the main menu.
