For me, there's no other RSS Feed Reader for Mac. I tried the others but always come back to it.
Simple, fast, easy to use. And integrates with Google Reader.
The only way to organize a ton of RSS feeds and power through them. I love that NetNewsWire was designed for sitting at your computer with a coffee in one hand and other tapping the space bar to scroll through each post and move on to the next.
Since the move to Google is has become even better. There are still some features that I'm sure are coming, like Sharing. But right now, I love it and I don't mind the Ads. Some day I'll pony up the $$ and get rid of the ads.
Syncs with Google Reader and has its own internal browser. Nuff said ...
Great RSS reader for Mac. Love the fact that it now syncs with Google Reader.
Best RSS reader. Google Reader sync is much better than NewsGator.
NetNewsWire is a great RSS feed reader. I miss the UI of NewsFire, but the ability to sync RSS feeds across computers makes up for it.
I also love that there is a Windows equivalent (FeedDemon), as I'm a big fan of cross-platform software, and I also like having the same features and same software capabilities whether I'm running a Mac or a Windows machine.
Ya know. I love NNW and have for a few years now. Not happy with the new Google Reader changes but whatever. it's still a great straightforward app for RSS.
every thing I want for Feed
Лучший рсс-клиент.
NetNewsWire is a wonderful RSS-client. With a recent addition of GoogleReader support it is definitely the best option for Mac-users.
This is the best RSS reader for mac users - and not a bad browser as well.
Probably the best RSS Reader. New version support Google Reader. Hoping the iPhone app will support push soon!
An excellent RSS Reader. Does it's job quite well. Flagging and use of the iPhone app w/ syncing make for a great RSS experience.
Perfect RSS reader when coupled with iPhone version because it keeps it in sync over the air!
A decent enough general purpose RSS reader, and possibly your best choice on the Mac. I use it because of the NewsGator integration allows me to 'clip' articles and repurpose them as a separate RSS feed which I automatically publish to a Wordpress Blog. Works well in tandem with NewsGator Go on Mobile, some say the iPhone version is great too.
The interface is beautiful for the most part, the ability to use a 'Combined' Google Reader like view, with version 3.x is great. It's got the browser built-in, so that you can click links from within the stories and have them open in Tabs, which is nice.
That said, its not without some minor annoyances. The occasional Syncing Error forces you to start over. Also, sometimes I wish it had more keyboard shortcuts.
You can navigate forward all right using up-down arrows, but given that it paginates your news items, if you try to navigate back from the first item of a new 'page', you'll go back to the first item of the previous page (instead of the expected last item viewed).
Also great would be a "Panic" button ala Windows counterpart FeedDemon. An easy way to set default sort options for all folders. But given that its the best thats out there, I guess Mac users have to wait till Newsgator releases a newer version which fixes these problems.
