Comparison of feed aggregators
The factual accuracy of parts of this article (those related to article) may be compromised due to out-of-date information. (March 2013) |
The following is a comparison of RSS feed aggregators. Often e-mail programs and web browsers have the ability to display RSS feeds. They are listed here, too.
Many BitTorrent clients support RSS feeds for broadcatching (see Comparison of BitTorrent clients).
With the rise of Cloud computing, some cloud based services offer feed aggregation. They are listed here as well.
Web-Based Feed Readers
The information below only covers mobile apps and computer applications (including ones like Netscape Navigator that have been dead for a decade plus). It does not (unfortunately) cover web-based feed readers. See, for instance, the Operating System Support chart below.
A few notable web-based feed aggregators:
- Google Reader - has been defunct several years
- Old Reader - was a good successor to Google Reader until October 2016 when the site started subscribe users to news sites without notification or permission.
A more complete picture of the web-based feed aggregator would be a welcome addition to this article.
