New features and functions in the updated Online platform include:

  • Folders – you can now manage all your feeds online in the same way you organize information in Microsoft Outlook or other popular email clients.
  • Per-Post Rating System – A major milestone, NewsGator has introduced a per-post ratings system. Not only can users rate each post they read, but can also add the rating feature seamlessly to their own blog site. By rating the posts they read, users can enjoy more sophisticated recommendations and highly-rated aggregated content in ways that have never before been possible.
  • Recommended Feeds –NewsGator Online now recommends new RSS feeds based on your preferences and ratings. This makes it easier to find information that is useful and bring it to you in a format that is easy to access, read and store.
  • My Clippings – This allows you to save all of your favorite posts with one click, and access them later.
  • Smart Feed Enhancements – In addition to adding additional content sources for its keyword and URL search feeds, NewsGator is now offering email feeds, which allow users to have email sent to specific addresses converted to RSS feeds and consumed in NewsGator or other tools. This is especially useful for subscribing to mailing lists, or for converting email-based alerts to RSS.

The new free edition also includes subscription synchronization capabilities with NewsGator Outlook Edition.

Leading content providers, analysts, and RSS innovators applauded NewsGator's announcement:

Allen Weiner of the Gartner Group said, "Essential to the growth of RSS is the development of products and services that cross the chasm to a broader consumer audience. These innovative features and great content, packaged to attract new readers, will help grow the entire industry more rapidly."

FeedBurner's CEO Dick Costolo said, "New features, greater ease-of-use, and a great consumer offer. These are exactly the ingredients required for the next phase of the RSS industry’s growth. We're very pleased to see this terrific new recipe from our partners at NewsGator."

Thirty premiere RSS content providers joined in the launch announcement, including the Christian Science Monitor, Space.com, CBS major-market affiliates, WebMD, and Weblogs, Inc.

"We're pleased to see these continuing innovations making RSS ever-easier and more readily available for a broader public," said Grant Wedner of WebMD.

In addition to its free Online Service, NewsGator sells NewsGator Outlook Edition, which allows you to access and synchronize all your RSS feeds through Microsoft Outlook.

punch_card_porn_intro_sm.jpg image

Hello, friends. Let's have a contest! I've got a Firefly PC Remote from SnapStream to give away, and I think one of you should have it. All you need to do is send me an email (first name is 'editor', last name is 'at gizmodo.com') with your best caption for this picture. Let me give you an example: "Ha ha, Howard. It is like we are going to have sex, perhaps with this ancient computer, as in a pornographic film and also the title of this post!" That would be, in example, a 'non-winner.'

Firefly_FrontLF3_006.jpg imageSnapstream's Firefly is in some ways, perfect. The install is easy, the layout of the buttons seems logical, the Firefly software never crashed on me (with one almost-exception, which I'll get to in a minute), and for most of the functionality it offers, it just worked.

Oh, what is it? It's an RF remote control for your PC, specifically oriented for a Home Theater PC.

Snapstream sent me out a unit, as well as gave me an exclusive look at its "Snapstream Spotlight" suite of software, a bundle of services from other companies that offer crippled or demo versions to let you get a feel for their use; companies like Movielink, Live365, or NewsGator. Let me talk about the Firefly in general, for a moment, then we'll get to the Spotlight.
