Switching to Newsgator for my RSS feeds

Tuesday 5th August, 2008
There are several devices on which I read RSS feeds: Mac (2 off), Thinkpad and now my iPod Touch. It's always been an issue keeping the feed lists in sync between the various devices and the unread marks.

For ages I used Shrook on the Mac because it did just that for Mac OS X. Unfortunately I didn't work on the Thinkpad.

I recently re-examined my choice of reader and ended up going back to where I started with RSS readers years ago (or at least when RSS came into use). I went back to using Newsgator.

There are clients for XP (FeedDaemon) and Mac (NetNewsWire) and now NetNewsWire runs on the iPod Touch as well. All this and a Web interface and a service that keeps all clients in sync. Magic!
