The old switcheroo

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Since I couldn’t get past recreating that crash everytime I imported my OPML file into News Desk, I decided a change would do me good. So now I’m reading my news in Sharpreader, which has become a much nicer product in the time since I last tried, unsuccessfully, to use it! I was sort of looking for something that would handle both RSS and ATOM anyway, so the crashing just gave me another excuse to switch.

That’s the nice thing about news aggregators, there are so many good ones out there now and being developed that it’s not too difficult to pick and choose until you find one that makes you happy, and then when it stops making you happy, it’s not too difficult to switch yet again!

    It appears that VMyths is going to cease operations while Rob Rosenberger is on an extended tour in the Persian Gulf. I’ll miss it. Not only did I enjoy Rob’s presentation at Gnomedex last year, but I used the site on a pretty conisistent basis as a reference tool, and pointer when dealing with questions…

    An interesting article and discussion over at PocketPC Thoughts about all the places that don’t allow cameras, for various reasons, and what people who still want to be able to take their cell phones and/or PDA’s with them are going to be running in to. Personally I think there are going to be more and…
