This reader has a pretty neat interface and is easy to follow navigation. I could import my feeds from newsgator into this Great News feed reader and then sync it with my bloglines account in under 1 minute. It supports all the major languages, 23 in all. One of the best features that I liked about this feed reader is that organzing your feeds is very simple. Following is how the organize feed window looks like:

As feed demon, greatnews feed reader has a statistic feature as well to tell you where, on feeds and how much you are spending your time on. There are 6 different styles for your feed readers look and feel. It doesn’t have tags but is replaced with something called as labels and is pretty similar to tagging feature.

If I were to compare it with FeedDemon, I’d say that’s this software is still not there but surely have a great potential. Just like feeddemon syncs your newsgator feed, greatnews reader takes your bloglines feeds offline. You can check the complete list of features here.

If you did not know there are plenty of solutions to attack this problem and one of the most popular is using FeedDemon. Feed Demon
is
the best
desktop RSS aggregator Feed Demon is the best desktop RSS aggregator and you don’t have to spend a single penny on it. With amazing options to make your feed reading and aggregating a cherish-able experience, FeedDemon rules the desktop market.

Let’s take a look at some of it’s features.

Tabs: For me the most amazing feature is tabs. It’s so addictive and so useful for someone like me who has countless fees to read in multiple categories. This one feature is enough for anyone to move off Google Reader.

Newspaper format: The channels of feed are displayed in a newspaper format and hence makes it easy for people to use it’s GUI.

Watches: Another wonderful feature. Here you can set keyword(s) to watch for when you have your feeds arriving. What it does is it puts all the news feeds in a particular watch. Let’s say if you want you keep track of “iPhone”. Now any website (of whose RSS you are using in FeedDemon) that writes about iPhone will go right into your watch.

It’s helpful because I can create a category inside feeddemon to read similar stories. And if I have countless feeds it’s a good way to separate what you are most interested about.

Styles: A great feature that should be integrated in Google Reader. It’s like theming your reader. Choose from 6 different styles. I just love the expando style as it gives me amazing flexibility.

Panic Button: Went on vacation just to realize that you have 100000 feeds in your FeedDeamon. Well it’s like a panic situation and easy solution is to just hit the panic button.

Search: A very powerful Search feature where you can search for keyword(s) and set various criteria like search with in last weeks feed and so on.

Speed: Nothing can match the speed of a desktop feed reader as it runs on your machine and doesn’t have to be dependent on the optimized code of online feed readers. Google Reader for example is great with AJAX but still cannot match the speed.

Also a Browser: When you want to read a complete article you just have to click the link and it opens the website’s article right into your FeedDemon. You can achieve this in Google Reader using a Greasemonkey script or Stylish.

Wisdom of the crowd: I love the feature “Popular Topics”. It gives me an idea of what post or feed article is popular among other readers.

Automatic Feed Discovery:Based on your reading habits, FeedDemon auto subscribes you to the similar feeds that you are addicted to most.

There are many other many other great features that makes this reader a nifty and must have application for serious feed readers and subscribers. Just try your hands on it and you wont go for any other feed aggregating and reading solution.
