EDITOR NOTES
MacUpdate RSS feed: http://www.macupdate.com/mommy/macsurferx.xml
DESCRIPTION

RSS Menu is a systemwide menu that allows you to read and organize your favourite RSS or Atom feeds.

The articles are automatically updated and you will get a notification when new articles are available or when some other event occurs. In addition to visual notification, you can also enable speech notification and choose one of the many built in voices.
It is also possible to integrate iTunes (for podcasts) and Safari (for RSS bookmarks) with RSS Menu.

Key features include:

  • background application (doesn't get in your way and is accessible from anywhere)
  • very fast parsing engine
  • importing and exporting of OPML files
  • Growl and speech notification
  • many options to customize the menu
  • support for grouping feeds in submenus and adding seperators
  • support for using RSS Menu as an external reader in Safari (or any other application)
  • support for integration with iTunes and Safari
  • support for favourite icons (aka page icons)

  • fixed a bug that would prevent a feed from parsing correctly
  • fixed a bug that would cause problems when a favicon was being downloaded
  • fixed a bug that generated a huge amount of cached files
  • fixed a memory leak when downloading favicons
  • fixed a bug that would show notifications after quitting, even if no new articles were available

*****

JACKER  Great application now as it turned out with this version. Everything work like a charm. Gmail is also working again, how cool is that!! Open Gmail in you Safari and click the RSS icon in the link bar, and you're done!. Now all my information is tight together, mail and news. It saving so much RAM and CPU, it is untrue!! Such a great economic/ergonomic brilliance.

Apperance: 5/5

Easy of use: 5/5

Value: 5/5

Stability: 5/5 (fast reply and improvements along, but testing should be done beforehand!!)

Features: 4/5 (Because there is still potential with global shortcuts, and a key-click on menu-bar icon combination)

I hope these will be incorporated soon!  (Version 1.11.2)

JACKER  Gmail has constant problems, I think they just launched it, and anyway it's ATOM NOT RSS. I tried Gmail myself with NetNewsWire, didn't work either.  (Version 1.11.1)
