Great! It is a strong and viable RSS feed reader.

I pointed it to my portable Firefox install and – happy day – any URL for a feed or embedded in the feed article would open in Firefox. It has some basic filtering and sorting options.Īnd, in the options, there is one where I could set a third part external browser to be used. I can flag, tag, and bag just about anything I want with a feed article. It has AdBlock integration which was unexpected and good. It is very polished and devoured the OPML file I gave it. It is actively being maintained and it shows. However, for simple RSS feed needs it still works great after all these years. I would have to copy/past the link from Feedreader into Firefox, or open the link in IE and again copy it into Firefox. I really liked the simple layout of Feedreader and the search worked fine but there was no way I could work out a way to get it to open URL links in Firefox. I settled on trialing QuiteRSS Portable and the portable (ZIP) version of Feedreader (v3.14) instead of going for Omea Reader. I then decided to try out an alternative RSS feed reader again for kicks and grins. So when I got around to setting up my new Win 7 laptop “Alister”, I copied my portable Firefox folder over to the new system and my browser system was set. I then drag the tab into its place on my bookmark sidebar and it is thus categorized and saved for a future blog-post or other usage. When I want to save a feed article for later blogging or reference, I click the link – in Omea – and it opens as a new tab in my Firefox browser. Yet I still have Internet Explorer 11 set as my system default web browser. Now I also use Chromium and have just been fiddling with Mozilla Firefox Developer Edition, Portable. I’m running Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition in the background as it is my primary blogging platform.
I sort though the feed links and view the article in the embedded window pane. What makes it super convenient to me is how it integrates in my blogging process. However one of the strongest features it offers is an incredibly robust (for my needs) search engine that lets me go back and rediscover feed articles I knew I saw somewhere. In the end I settled on Omea Reader it was free, it was very fast, it supported all kinds of tagging, highlighting, filtering, and sorting. There are a lot of client-based RSS feed readers and believe me, I have gone through many of them.

On my Windows 7 laptop “Tatiana” I have been using the free RSS reader Omea Reader. Every now and then I score a major, minor victory.
