Newsgator is now offering its Desktop based RSS readers for free. Zip. Zilch. You get the idea. Along with FeedDemon, NetNewsWire, Newsgator Inbox and Newsgator Go! will be available for free. Considering the elegance of Google Reader and Bloglines this is the only way to go to really compete. Google Reader and Bloglines appeals to RSS news consumers for the ability to catch up on your feeds on any computer, something a desktop-based application doesn’t offer, but FeedDemon actually synchronizes online, which may make FeedDemon much more appealing. The price doesn’t hurt either. What’s your RSS Reader of choice? Will you be trying these programs out or sticking to Google Reader/Bloglines?

    I’ve always preferred a desktop app, and had been using Vienna too. It’s a great app. But the one thing I wish it had was syncing. So I gave NetNewsWire a try yesterday for that very feature. Works as advertised. I’ve got two computers at home and one at work all in sync as if I was using Google, but with a better/easier interface.

    Ive been using JetBrains Omea Reader on Windows for awhile now, and I like the layout quite a bit. Im going to look into FeedDemon now though, since Im always looking for something bigger and better!
