RssFeedEater 1.3

CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

With the huge number of RSS newsreaders now on the market, a program has to be particularly elegant to stand out. RssFeedEater does its basic job well, but it doesn't reach that high-water mark. It reads and manages RSS feeds from blogs and news sites smoothly, downloading new headlines, providing notifications of new articles, and allowing users to browse full text without leaving the program. However, it doesn't offer ways to customize how articles are displayed, and does not provide keyword search tools that would let a user gather information from several feeds at once. The program should be enough for undemanding RSS readers, but computer users who want more advanced features should look elsewhere.
