feed reading in style

I mentioned the other day just how much I have been anticipating a good XUL feed reader. Well, today I found something very interesting. It's not a standalone app. It's XUL right in browser content but it's pretty nice and I think it's good enough to be my default tool for a while. Take a look at XUL Channels in your favorite XUL-capable browser and let me know what you think.

That is just about the coolest thing i have seen in a long time.

The xul based amazon search program was also really cool.

FINALLY a really kick ass reason to keep using my favorit XUL-capable browser

lets see Safari beat that!

Interesting, as is Aggreg8.

I also just saw a note today that Nick Bradbury (creator of HomeSite and TopStyle) is working on an RSS reader called FeedDaemon.

Hey Asa. You can read RSS feeds in Mozilla Mail using nntp//rss. The project page is here:
