Hassle to Read Many Sites a Day? Great News RSS to the Rescue

(Digital Money World) Reading many blogs and sites a day is a hassle but if you are already using an RSS reader to read all your favorite blogs and news site, you would agree things would be much much different.

If you haven’t and don’t know what is RSS, worry not. Check out this entertaining yet easy to understand video from VideoJug first.


RSS In Plain English

After understanding how RSS works, let me introduce my daily RSS reader software that made my life pretty easy to keep myself updated for the daily new happenings just at a glance. There are a few different type of readers, some online and some software ones. Among the popular online ones are, myYahoo, iGoogle, Feedshow, NewsGator and more.

For offline RSS readers, you have choices even with your browser options and email softwares like Mozilla Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook but I have one that works perfectly for me.. *drum rolls*

Great News RSS Reader

TADAA! It’s the Great News RSS Reader compiled by CurioStudio. Benefits?

It loads fast for me, saves me alot of my time by allowing me to scan all the interesting blogs and websites that I like (You don’t have to manually go through the countless of good websites that you like manually or via bookmarks anymore). Also, organising my feeds by categories is a breeze with this piece of candy. I’ll just give you a glimpse of what I have on my feeds.

GreatNews RSS Aggregator

To add a feed into Great News RSS, you would just have to click on ‘Add a news feed’, paste the feed URL into it, click on Next, Next, and choose the category that the feed should be in. Check out the screenies I have for you in order if it’s difficult to visualize, but its that simple.

Just a click on ‘Update All’ button from the menu and all brand new information and latest news will be coming right out from the oven onto your reader.

For the full list of its features, you can check the details from CurioStudio.

Though I wish everyone would offer Full RSS rather than Partial RSS to improve my reading pleasure, but I guess that won’t really be possible. Still, it would save you hours a day just by downloading such software and adding your favorite sites that offers RSS feeds to it just like how you would use to bookmark interesting sites in your browsers during the old days (I rarely bookmark sites nowadays because of RSS)

ps. Remember to add Digital Money World to your feeds too. And if you’re not using Great News RSS, which RSS reader are you using?
