A Great Free Feed Reader that You Cannot Do Without

If you are anything like me and subscribe to hundreds of blogs by email, then you know what a chore it is to wade through all those messages to find your favourite bloggers. Luckily this is where GreatNews RSS Reader comes in handy. Most importantly it’s free and gets the job done adequately (even sometimes better than those of some commercial ones).

I really like it for its web-like browser interface. All of your feeds are neatly categorised on the left with individual feeds displayed on the main right window. Found an interesting link? No need to fire up your web browser – just click on it and it will open in a new tabbed window. Handy indeed! You could also ditch your browser for this all-in-one feed reader, although that’s not something I would recommend.

Adding new feeds is a snap and the reader will automatically highlight updated feeds. You can opt-in to view only the updated articles or the entire feed. Trust me, managing hundreds of feeds has never been so easy. You can categorise, search and even tag your feeds. You can even import your entire feed list from another source.

Although that’s not to say it is without problems. The software is still in beta, and I experienced a crash or two. And the built-in web browser seems a bit slow. I also noticed that it would hang-up for a couple of seconds while adding new feeds. I hope that the developers would take care of these issues. Otherwise it is a solid feed reader.

If you have a feed overload and can live with a few odd glitches now and then, then I would highly recommend GreatNews RSS Reader. Download it and give it a try – I know it won’t disappoint.
