Snackr - Little Bits of RSS Goodness
via Ryan Stewart - Rich Internet Application Mountaineer by Ryan Stewart on May 12, 2008
NJ on the Thermo team has been working on a little AIR application called Snackr built with Flex that helps you keep track of your feeds. It’s a little ticker that runs at the bottom of your screen and then displays random RSS items from feeds you subscribe to. Instead of a traditional reader in which you crank through each post, Snackr will help give you a random smattering of news from your feeds.It’s a really cool concept for reading RSS feeds. You point it at an OPML file and just watch the items go by on the screen picking the interesting ones to check out in more detail. And because you’re getting random items from your feed you can catch things you might have missed. I’m using it to subscribe to things like AXNA and Technorati/Google Blog searches where there is a lot of noise but a lot of great posts hidden in between.
