Two RSS aggregation apps.
July 30, 2002 11:45 AM
I look thru my server logs every day and have found a few RSS/RDF aggregation apps thru referral urls. I wouldn't have known about them had I not seen these referrers. So, read your server logs folks, there's lots of great stuff in there. As for the aggregation apps, these two are the best I've seen so far (imho)...
- AmphetaDesk (all platforms)
- "AmphetaDesk is a free, cross platform, open-sourced, syndicated
news aggregator - it obediently sits on your desktop, downloads
the latest news that interests you, and displays them in a quick
and easy to use (and customizable!) webpage. With thousands of
channels available, AmphetaDesk can shave hours off your day - and
you'll look smart to all your friends! Egotism never had it
better!"
- NetNewsWire (OSX only)
- NetNewsWire is an easy-to-use news reader for web sites. It uses a familiar three-paned interface—like that of Outlook Express or Mailsmith—to display websites and their news. It reads RSS files. (It's not a screen-scraper.)
