From: Andy B. on 30 Apr 2010 02:25 I have an object that works sort of like an agragator by gathering different types of information that is saved by the application. This information are things like collections of Headlines, Events, RSS feed posts from any given number of rss feeds and so on. The information gathered is displayed on the main screen of the app. My question is, what would I name this class/object?

Look at the words in your own description of the object to choose a name for it. From the paragraph that you have written, you could name it "Aggregator" or "InformationAggregator".
