NewNetNewsWire
Brent has some more details about the forthcoming NetNewsWire 2.0. I've been testing it for a while, and I have to say, it rocks. Since some of the new features are mentioned, I feel safe in commenting on them now ;-)
The killer features for me are flagged items and smart lists. I usually catch up on my feeds whilst on the train, so I go through and flag news items that I want to read when I'm back online. I've got a smart feed for "flagged items", so I can see at a glance all the articles I need to re-read.
Search is also useful, to track down old items I want to blog about. And the ability to post to ecto straight from NNW is a thing of beauty. There are loads of incremental changes too, that make this a fantastically smooth application and a pleasure to use. And all this for a free upgrade from NNW 1 - now that is value for money!
