Alnera FeedBuster RSS Reader 1.0: Always perfectly informed
Many info websites in the Internet now offer an RSS feed with latest current newsthat can be subscribed free of charge. The Alnera FeedBuster RSS Reader retrievesthe content of the feeds automatically every few minutes, in order to show them in avery clearly arranged window.
Garching, Germany  Mar. 01, 2006 - The Internet is the perfect news source. Seriousmedia like television stations, news magazines and the daily papers publish theirarticles every minute in the Internet. Computer magazines, online-advisers and othersources of information also place new contributions in the net all around the clock.However the constant onrush of new messages is a problem for the people. Theycontinue to leaf constantly from one homepage to another for not missing anything.
The smarter surfer prefers another way and searches on every info homepage for a socalled RSS-Feed. RSS means "Really Simple Syndication" and indicates a news sourcein XML-format. It records only titles and introductions of a new message - and thelink to the actual homepage. Such an RSS feed is nothing else than a table ofcontents of all new messages in a very good order, which are published on a webpage. But: How to retrieve these RSS overviews?
RSS-, ATOM- and RDF-news-feed subscriptionThe Alnera FeedBuster RSS Reader 1.0 presents itself as browser independent softwaresolution. In its own window the program already presents a selection of interestingRSS feeds out of the news- and computer field.
It is very easy to add new RSS, ATOM or RDF feeds to the application. To do this, itis enough to copy the http-address of a feed into the clipboard and then to create anew entry in the RSS Reader. In this case FeedBuster inserts the web addressautomatically, so you only need to specify the feeds name. Many feeds can be foundin RSS directories like Feedster ( www.feedster.com ).
The RSS reader automatically downloads the newest headlines of a feed and shows themin a long list. A mouse click on a new title slots in the appropriate message. Ifthis text arouses the interest of the user, one mouse-click is enough to load theactual web page - directly in the RSS reader, that is equipped with an internalbrowser for this purpose.
Developer Adam Marcol of Alnera software Solutions: "Persons who would like tosubscribe many feeds, can group them to have a better overview. These groups can becreated very easily in the RSS Reader."
Automatic updating of the RSS feedsDonÂ't miss any message: Therefore the Alnera FeedBuster RSS Reader 1.0 is equippedwith an internal time planner, who updates the RSS feeds again independently. Thisautomatic reloading of new titles can happen every minute if necessary. Certainly itis more reasonable to advise the time planner to look every 30 or 60 minutes for newmessages.
If the RSS reader finds something on the refresh process, a popup window will bedisplayed above the system tray, which informs about new titles. At the same time asound signal can be heard. So the user doesnÂ't miss any message, even if he worksconcentrated on another application.
