NewsBee

November 13, 2012 Stephanie Leary Leave a Comment

NewsBee icon NewsBee is a super-handy little RSS reader for Macs. It sits quietly in your toolbar, collecting your feeds, and lets you glance through the headlines one feed at a time. It’s not a replacement for a full-fledged RSS firehose guzzler like NetNewsWire, but it does give you a better way to check very important feeds without wading through all your subscriptions. I’m using it to keep an eye on my wordpress.org plugin support threads.

I used to use FeedPopper for this, but the Dutch developers have shifted their focus to iOS apps. I’m delighted to have found a replacement (especially one with such an adorable icon).

Recommended, Techy Goodness
