Bloglines

| 5 Comments

For those of you who aren't using Bloglines to manage their newsfeeds, I urge you to give it a try.

For those of you that already are using Bloglines, I noticed something today that seems new, and you probably haven't noticed. If you have, good for you.

One thing that was nice, although somewhat limited, was the ability to mark an entire feed as unread. The downside was that if you were a little behind on a feed, and it had 20-30 articles, but you wanted to look at one later, you would either have to clip it, or something else. Now there is a little box next to each article to keep just an article as new.

Props to Mark and friends for making a great news reader even better.

meh. i'm happy with trillian pro.

I would be happier if it supported newer-than-0.9x RSS feeds.

Ummm... Last time I checked, it does...

The latest release of Thunderbird (0.8) has a new RSS feed managment account section. I'm trying this out as a way to get updated headlines from the various sites I usually visit. Seems it will be a shift in the way I normally get information, but might work out better.

I used to use Evolution to manage my RSS feeds. It's support was clunky, but that's not really why I switched. I realized that I was using multiple computers to read news, and having a standalone newsreader caused me to have to filter out what I had already read. One of the benefits to having something web/server based is that the status of the feeds you have read is stored "somewhere else" so it is always in sync.
