Simple and Exactly what I wanted This is a perfect lightweight RSS feed reader. I use this for notifications of new items to feeds i'm watching. Does the job very well. Thanks!

Meines Erachtens bester RSS-Reader - wenn man seine anderweitig gesicherten Feeds über OPML importiert.

Works great only if you could scroll on the widget that would be great! Galaxy s
★★☆☆☆
Widget too hard to read and cannot be scrolled. Also widget doesn't eliminate read messages so you stare at the same 10th or so headlines.
