Review of Webbased FeedReaders

admin — Fri, 31 Mar 2006 09:09:54 +0000

TechCrunch (uhh, i mean Frank Gruber) examined nine web-based feed readers (Attensa Online, Bloglines, FeedLounge, Google Reader, Gritwire, News Alloy, NewsGator Online, Pluck Web Edition, Rojo).

Not much of a shock here, Google Reader and FeedLounge are the fastest in performace. Bloglines and Rojo are the best choice for a feature rich application. Except none seem to approach the speed and agility of the desktop based readers like NetNewsWire and FeedDemon (surprise;).

Nice chart though:

Touchstone attention management

admin — Thu, 30 Mar 2006 22:16:25 +0000

Steve Rubel wrote about Touchstone this week. The application should be some sort of attention management engine, which streams RSS feeds to your desktop using a set of rules as a filter. This should allow you to customize what’s important when. The new FeedDemon 2.0 does the same thing and the beta of NetNewswire also sorts feeds by attention. TiVO does the same for TV… we’re getting there…

FeedDemon 2.0

admin — Tue, 17 Jan 2006 23:14:34 +0000

Nick Bradbury announces FeedDemon 2.0 Beta 1 on his blog. They have decided to skip FeedDemon 1.6 and go straight to version 2.0, which will be a free upgrade for all FeedDemon customers.

It’s a pre-release but v2 should make it easier for new users to get started, and make it easier for power users to deal with information overload! There’s a new “subscription overview” which provides a summary of your subscriptions – including which ones you pay the most and least attention to. Looks good!

Download it here.
