I also use SharpReader because of it's fast, simple, and
the most important for me, the hierarchical organization
of subscribed feeds...
I just miss the "Watches" feature of
FeedDemon, and the ability to flag
"Interesting" posts so that you can
find them easily when you need them. I also miss the
nice look'n'feel of FeedDemon...
As I'm also building an RSS Reader: MyBlogroll.com
(check out the screenshots !), I'll take note of all
your feedbacks and will try to implement them in it..
#3) Mail To: that hooks into outlook
I have recently switched to SharpReader from FeedDemon
and while I love the hierarchical categories, my major
problem so far is that it will not allow me to sort by
read status and because blogs come in with different
dates on them, when highlighting the top level for new
posts you have to really search hard to find the new
(unread) posts.
MyBlogRoll looks good Julien, but the beta download
didnt work. Is it available anywhere?
Agreed, it's the only thing I use. My only beef is the
drain it puts on my system when starting up. I have
SharpReader set to run on startup, and it really drags
the system down. A lower thread priority for the
fetching process would be very welcome.
Julian - the screenshots are very slick! can't wait to
try it out! Make sure it has "Import from
sharpreader opml" feature built in, though...
I'm also not seeing the "author"
column over there as well.
Outlook 2003
* Create search folder only containing unread articles
from the newsgator hierarchy
* Click on properties for the search folder and make
sure it shows 'show number of unread messages'.
You may be able to do this partially in outlook 2002 but
i can't remember.
I would also like to see some kind of search capability
in SharpReader.
Manoj - you can search right now. Press CTRL+SHIFT+F
I only have one problem with SharpReader: it doesn't run
under Whidbey.
I take that back: I tried on another computer, and
everything is fine. Great.
I love sharp reader and use it all day, every day. My
only real problem is that if you have a lot of feeds it
consumes a VAST amount of memory. Mine usually runs at
about 135mb. It would be nice if it had some sort of
paging system so that feeds you weren't reading were not
loaded into memory all the time. But other than that,
it's fantastic.
Why doesn't Luke release source code so we can add these
things?
