RSS Bandit Rocks

  • Article

I knew about RSS Bandit but hadn't really tried it so far. Finally tired of SharpReader taking up tons of memory on my box, I decided to try RSS Bandit and am loving it. Especially the light memory consumption (compared to SharpReader). Next stop will probably be Newsgator (though currently I don't like the idea of launching Outlook for checking blogs - maybe it takes some getting used to) or FeedDemon (though none of those 2 are free, so it might not be fare to compare them to RSS Bandit and SharpReader).

Among other random things read this classic GirlHacker (aka Lilly Tao) post about Mother's Day - random, factual, interesting and maybe even useful. I like her style of blogging. This was right after I saw Nuts(which by the way I loved).

    I love NetsGator so far. I like the fact that I can read news and emails from one software. There are things that I think they can improve, but it's working well for me so far. I'm like you, I used to use SharpReader, but it was pretty heavy, so I started to shop around for other blog readers...

    I run Sharpreader at work and Newsgator at home. I like them both, despite Sharpreader's hunger for memory.

    I have tried RSS Bandit a few times on different versions but I don't find it compares to Sharpreader's features.
