NetNewsWire is an easy-to-use RSS news reader for web sites.
It uses a familiar three-paned interface -- like that of Outlook Express or Mailsmith -- to display websites and their news.
Made with Cocoa! More news, less junk. Faster.
Here are some key features of "NetNewsWire Lite":
News comes to you
Spend less time surfing. Let NetNewsWire do the work for you, as it gathers your news and tells you which items are new. Subscribe to feeds from all over the web—and from the built-in list of thousands of feeds in the Sites Drawer.
Tabbed browser
Open web pages in NetNewsWire’s browser, and see them the same as in Safari, but with the convenience of staying in the same window. NetNewsWire remembers tabs between launches, so you come right back to where you left off last time.
Searching
Search your news items with a standard Apple search widget—as in Mail and other applications.
Podcasts and enclosures
Automatically download podcasts and enclosures. Send podcasts to iTunes with with your choice of genre and playlist.
Smart lists
Gather news from all your feeds based on your criteria. It’s like smart playlists in iTunes—only for news instead of music.
Flagged items
Mark items that you want to keep—they stay forever or until you mark them as unflagged.
Synchronization
Keep your subscriptions, news item status, and even browser tabs synchronized between two or more computers.
Bloglines syncing
Read your Bloglines feeds with NetNewsWire for the best of both worlds, a rich desktop client and accessible-anywhere server.

Tell NetNewsWire how long to keep news items, so you can still read them even after they disappear from the feed.

Scripted feeds
Generate custom RSS and Atom feeds via AppleScript, Perl, Python, Ruby, and other scripting languages.

Track changes in news items as they’re edited and updated.
Activity window
Stay in control as NetNewsWire shows you exactly what it’s downloading.
