The Bottom Line

  • Can't search, flag or mark read
  • One update schedule has to fit all

Description

  • Blago RSS Newsreader shows item descriptions in a hover pop-up window.
  • When updating, Blago RSS Newsreader alerts about new items via its system tray icon.
  • Blago RSS Newsreader supports Windows 9x/ME/NT/2000/XP.

Guide Review - Blago RSS Newsreader 0.92 - RSS News Feed Reader

If you use a mail checker for email, you'll possibly like Blago RSS Newsreader. Blago RSS Newsreader is a new item checker for RSS feeds. It will display them in small, clean window with more info available on mouseover.

When Blago RSS Newsreader updates its listing (which always takes place at an hourly interval and can't be configured), it shows new items in a nice useful system tray pop-up window.

All this makes Blago RSS Newsreader great for the few news sites you're following religiously. It is less useful if you want to aggregate updates and postings from many sites and blogs and organize or search them.

That's beyond the scope of Blago RSS Newsreader, but for checking news quickly it's perfect.
