Web RSS Reader

Posted by Richard Thu, Dec 01 2005 17:41

After reading my brother's article about bloglines, I was curious what web RSS readers were out there. I had tried Google's Reader, but I wasn't impressed with the interface. I did some searching and found Netvibes. At first, I thought it was just another site like My Yahoo, but it had a couple of features I really like.


At first, the page looks very similar to My Yahoo as I mentioned before with a couple of Ajax tricks (see the Webnote).

In the upper left, you can add content to the web reader. You can import from an OPML file or add individual feeds.

Adding content

Now for the part I like most about the site. If you click on a title, it pulls up screen were you can pick which links you want to read. It tracks the posts you have already read.

Viewing feeds

I have been using Netvibes for a couple of days and I like the interface more and more. Check out their blog for more information.
