RSS Reading

January 23, 2006 - Posted by André Restivo

I’ve been using bloglines for quite some time now. I tried several times to switch to a desktop RSS reader but kept going back to the old web based bloglines, mostly because it was easier to have my reading synchronized as I was using two computers (one at home and one at work).

My new 12” powerbook, beeing much lighter and smaller than my old laptop, follows me around more often (well, in fact always). So I decided to give desktop RSS reading one more shot. I googled for a decent RSS reader for the mac and found Vienna a simple and nice RSS reader.

What I’m liking most about using this kind of setup is that I can keep my reading up to date even when I’m webless.

    I did just the opposite.
    Went from the desktop to the web(bloglines) because i didn’t toke my Mac to the office. It’s hard to sync the reading. ;-)

    Try the Sage extension to firefox.
    It is really nice because you don’t have to use an extra program and you can just open everything in a firefox tab.

    I think you can also save the (rss) bookmarks in a remote server.
