Create a skill with an API from an online service using the tutorial at https://github.com/fossasia/susi_server/blob/development/docs/skills/susi_skill_development_tutorial.md

BBC NEWS Api http://dream.susi.ai/p/news This will return recent articles and news as a description.

It has more things which can be implemented but as we can only receive one answer in console and that is issue #132
