Reeder for Mac

"Silvio Rizzi's Reeder 1.0 is a desktop Google Reader client for RSS newsfeeds. It offers synchronization with Google Reader accounts, integration with Readability, support for gestures, "send to" services (for Instapaper, ReaditLater, and Readability), support for saving to Pinboard, Delicious, and Zootool, posting to Twitter, and other features."

I've read lots of reports on this, and everyone that uses it seems to really like it. I guess they better since it's priced at $9.99 USD in the App Store for Mac [affiliate link]. I used to use NetNewsWire on my Mac, then I pretty much switched to staying in the Google screen for reading links. That isn't a very smooth way to do it so I'm glad there is a great choice for a reader for Mac. On the iPad I've primarily used Reeder [affiliate link], so it seems logical that they designed a version for the Mac. What do you use for a news reader on your Mac, or your iPad?

Reeder Updated, And Calls Out The Competition!

Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Software (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad)" @ 11:00 AM

"Reeder for iPad, a popular RSS reader for the tablet device, debuted a major upgrade this week-even as its creator went public with his feud against a competing application."

Can't blame the creator of Reeder for iPad [affiliate link] for being a little perturbed at how his competition, Mobile RSS HD, has a surprisingly similar interface. So on the same day that Reeder was updated with "Readability," a feature that lets you read articles within the app from your RSS feed grabs, Silvio Rizzi showed just how similar the two apps are by posting side-by-side comparison shots, which ended up here. The similarities are striking. So striking in fact, that Instapaper [affiliate link] and Read It Later [affiliate link] have both pulled their support for MobileRSS HD. As of this posting, MobileRSS HD is still available in the iTunes store, but Rizzi has notified Apple about what he calls a "rip off" of his work, and I can't blame him.
