Snarfer is simply the best way to read, search and manage RSS feeds. And it's FREE!
Snarfer provides a new approach to RSS feed aggregation focusing on speed, efficiency and ease of use. Using Snarfer people can become functional RSS users within seconds of installing it. Snarfer has a strong community of loyal users providing feedback, features requests and enhancements which allows the Snarfware team to bring out an enhanced version about every 45 days. (There's lots of cool stuff coming every cycle!)
Snarfer now includes a Search Wizard that enables users to construct complex searches for items or information contained on eBay or Craigslist. The search results are returned to Snarfer utilizing the specific functions supported by these communities. These searches are intelligent and tent automatically returning new results to Snarfer every time the feed is updated.
Another exciting feature is the addition of Bloglines synchronization. Using the free Bloglines service Snarfer can synchronize feeds using the Bloglines online database. Users can then access and update both Snarfer and Bloglines anytime, and from anywhere. To access Snarfer feeds from another location (like the office or internet cafe) simply login to Bloglines using a browser. This combines the power of a desktop application with the flexibility of a centralized internet database. So visit Bloglines to sign up for your free account.
