    "Looks good, but if you can't type in the address of the RSS feed..."

    March 1, 2005  |   By IndigoDarkwolf

    Pros

    The ticker itself looks clean and professional.

    Cons

    Number one complaint: The text field for manual RSS feeds does not allow enough characters! Number two: Cannot stream news from more than one custom RSS feed at a time without opening more copies of the program. Additional complaints: More font options would be useful on the ticker, to make it more readable. More background color options would also be nice (there's a nice, standard dialog that they could be calling on Windows to give them a color). It would be nice if docking were as simple as clicking and dragging. And just to be petty, it would even be a perk if it opened the default browser for its help page instead of Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

    This is on version 3.05? At this rate of feature inclusion, I'll check back around version 7 or so.
