Killer Apps for Mac - Vienna Reader

The problem with all the different software out there is that you can never get exactly what you want. For example, it took me a lot longer than it should have to switch from Safari to Firefox because I read a lot of news-feeds on a daily basis, and Safari’s integrated reader kicks butt. Packed full of features, Vienna Reader is a freeware feed reader that replaces and multiplies the functionality of any other RSS program, including Safari. It has a great Mail-like interface that is intuitive and just simple enough to use without being ungainly. It’s also very customizable, although I ended up going back to the default settings a few days into using the program, and the built-in browser is nice for when you don’t really want to open up Firefox to look at a link. If you get any of your news from RSS or ATOM feeds, you need to try Vienna Reader. If you don’t, you should start by downloading Vienna and subscribing to Duenos.net.
