know about these feeds).
When I first viewed the WSJ feeds in FeedDemon, I discovered that
the wrong titles were showing in the channel bar. At first I thought
there must be a problem with the feeds themselves, but it turns out
the problem was with FeedDemon. So, I've posted a new build of
FeedDemon which fixes this bug - just visit the download page to get it.
As always, existing users should install the new build directly on top
of the current build. All of your existing information
(including your serial number) will be retained.
Note: The version of this build is 1.1.03, which is
displayed during the install and in FeedDemon's "About" box. I'll
update the "Check for new version" page shortly to reflect the new
release.

Developers
Press Release - Leading Content
Aggregator NewsGator 2.0 Adds
Synchronization, Online Services
Integration, and Powerful Tools for
Developers
01/07/2004 06:31 PMLatest Version of NewsGator, the Premier News Aggregator for
Microsoft Outlook, Adds Support for Multiple Machines and
Synchronization with Other Platforms and Mobile Devices, In Addition
to Powerful Developer Tools and Other Capabilities.
LAS VEGAS and Denver, CO -- January 7, 2004 -- NewsGator 2.0, a new
version of the popular news aggregator, was announced today by
NewsGator Technologies at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
NewsGator retrieves news from news sites, weblogs, newsgroups, and
other information sources that support the RSS or Atom syndication
formats, and automatically integrates the news items into Microsoft
Outlook. RSS (Rich Site Summary) News Syndication is an emerging
method of staying abreast with rapidly changing information and allows
users to sort, organize, group and search news in multiple ways. Using
NewsGator, users can read content offline making information readily
accessible any time.
Major New features in NewsGator 2.0:
- NewsGator Online Services integration -- NewsGator 2.0 includes
tight integration for the new NewsGator Online Services platform,
which allows users to take advantage of powerful subscription
synchronization capabilities. Users can also read related content
displayed on the NewsPage, seamlessly access custom search feeds, and
easily locate exclusive premium content.
- Subscription synchronization -- When used with the new NewsGator
Online Services platform, NewsGator 2.0 allows users to synchronize
their subscriptions between multiple machines, as well as other
editions of NewsGator available with NewsGator Online Services.
- NewsGator Extension API -- NewsGator 2.0 has a powerful new API
available for third-party developers, allowing them to build
extensions to NewsGator to support numerous new scenarios. With this
move, NewsGator extends beyond just an application, becoming a
platform allowing developers to build a variety of new
applications.
- Arbitrary RSS extension support -- NewsGator 2.0 is the first
mainstream content aggregation tool to support arbitrary extensions in
RSS or Atom feeds. Users or publishers can add arbitrary content into
their feeds, and NewsGator is now able to process this custom data.
Users can modify the rendering of items, add columns in Outlook, or
build custom extension processors in .NET. For example, an extension
can be written to add an appointment to the Outlook calendar when a
meeting is announced in a feed. The possibilities are particularly
exciting for businesses looking to integrate workflow applications
with RSS and Atom feeds.
There are many other new capabilities and features in NewsGator
2.0, including support for enclosures and attachments in feeds,
customizable rendering, and much more. And while NewsGator has always
been tightly integrated with Internet Explorer to allow easy
subscription to new feeds, NewsGator 2.0 enhances this integration
with single-click subscription to feeds from a web site.
NewsGator 2.0 works with Microsoft Outlook 2000 or later, and will
be available on January 19, 2004 from http://www.newsgator.com. Pricing
is $29 (U.S.) per copy, with quantity discounts available.

"Feed Your Reader" Firefox Feed
Extension
09/20/2004 10:22 AMWhen Firefox add
ed RSS support, I had mixed reactions. On the one hand, I was
excited by the boost RSS would receive by being supported in a popular
browser. But on the other hand, for obvious reasons I wasn't wild
about how Firefox built RSS into the browser without enabling users to
choose an external RSS reader.
So, I was glad when several FeedDemon customers talking about building an extension to enable FeedDemon
to take advantage of the new Firefox RSS features.
Michael Koziarski rose to
the challenge and created F
eed Your Reader, a Firefox extension that enables you to subscribe
to feed in FeedDemon - or any other RSS reader that supports the feed:
// protocol. Which means that even though the extension was
designed with FeedDemon in mind, it's not specific to FeedDemon.
Initial tests show that it also works with NetNewsWire on the
Mac.
Once this extension is installed, you'll see an additional "FYR"
icon in Firefox's status bar right next to the existing RSS icon.
Clicking the FYR icon displays a menu of auto-discovered feeds, and
clicking one of these feeds will display FeedDemon's "New Channel"
wizard to subscribe to it.
Details on Feed Your Reader are h
ere, and the project page is here. If you're viewing
this in Firefox, the download link to the XPI (extension) is here

Feed 0.6.4
04/08/2005 12:00 PMFeed is a RSS and Atom news reader, with the latest version released
in February 2005. The developer wrote this application because all of
the existing freeware RSS readers were more of a "hybrid between
iTunes and a web browser," and he wanted something that was more like
an email client.
The application is described as being "simple and familiar" including
a single window interface, and it lives up to that claim. Because
Feed is designed to work like a mail program, individual articles are
displayed directly in Feed.
The latest version of Feed now features drag and drop support,
allowing the user to drag text and URL clippings directly into the
Feed drawer from any application. Adding links from other
applications is simple, and any feed or article can be dragged from
Feed to another application that accepts Text or URL clippings. The
application also features audio notifications allowing the user to
choose any of the built in sounds to play when a new item becomes
available. Articles can be bookmarked in the feed list with a simple
command or by dragging the link to the Feed drawer, allowing articles
to be grouped for later reading or to save an article indefinitely.
The user has the option to completely customize the way feeds are
managed and displayed with the drag and drop interface. Feeds can be
grouped into folders and then display all articles in the group
together. The application currently supports all versions of Atom and
RSS allowing the importing and exporting of existing RSS feed
subscriptions in the industry-standard OPML format.

I call feedback! It's a shame pretty much everyone hates the new
design but I like it so it stays. I've taken a few tips
though and tweaked the link colours a bit, as well as making a few
other small changes such as a darker green for the header and a 1em
margin around the page.
In an attempt to satiate the voracious appetite for RSS displayed by some of
my visitors I've set up two new feeds: Blog comments and Blogmarks. I don't
use an aggregator myself so I'd appreciate feedback on how well they
work. I've also put together a blogmarks archive - no
search engine yet, but it's on the list.
