A scene group SQUNK releases another new application: an RSS reader called NewzCrawler. There’s a decent competition between RSS readers so this program has to offer something more: in this case, it’s a support for News servers (Usenet) and a user-friendly browser window.
NewzCrawler is a rss/atom reader, news aggregator, browser and blog client for Windows which provides access to news content from various sources. It gathers news content from each source channel and displays them in a number of views: News List, News Balloon and News Ticker. NewzCrawler’s user interface is similar to an ordinary MS Outlook Express-like user interface. It supports many back-end headline syndication file formats and embeds web browser for extra fast news surfing.
The main difference from other rss readers is that NewzCrawler rapidly retrieves news from various web sources in background and displays them in comfortable customizable views. It is the only solution available that combines RSS, Atom, Newsgroups and Web pages in one application.
Product features:
- Read news from various sources: ATOM, RSS, RDF, Usenet Newsgroups (NNTP), Web (HTTP);
- Compose messages with full-featured WYSIWYG editor and post them to your weblog on any Blogger, Metaweblog, MovableType or LiveJournal API supporting website;
- Browse actual news articles in the web using built-in browser;
- Keep informed about the most recent news in elegant manner with News Ticker and News Balloon;
