“Findory just finished adding a Bloglines-like feed reader to our personalized news site. It is available on our My Favorites page.

Like most RSS readers, you can import any RSS feed and any OPML list of feeds. You also can easily import your entire list of Bloglines subscriptions by entering your public username or your private username and password.

Like some other RSS readers, we show which feeds have new articles, the new articles in each feed, and which articles you have clicked on.

Unlike many other RSS readers, we’re fast, very fast.”

The goal of Socialmarks is to streamline the discovery, organization, and sharing of information.

The popularity of folksonomy-driven services, along with the general acceptance of their use, has grown tremendously within the recent months. The most popular of these services focus particularly on the ’social bookmarking’ aspect of the social networking concept. Socialmarks furthers this concept by, in addition, providing RSS and Atom feed aggregation tools (we’re currently tracking over a quarter of a million feeds)! With these features, Socialmarks also gives users the ability to tag specific feeds, a feed’s post, as well as allowing the user to add the post to their list of social bookmarks (which can also be tagged).

SearchFox RSS is an RSS reader that aggregates and personalizes feeds. It uses machine learning technology to automatically rank and personalize incoming feeds to reflect each reader’s unique interests.

“The web is moving away from a search-centered model to one where individuals subscribe to the information they want to read. SearchFox uses machine learning technology to automatically rank and personalize incoming feeds to reflect each reader’s unique interests. Our RSS reader learns by watching what individuals and the entire community find interesting, taking into account various inputs such as the source, author, and topic of an RSS entry. Existing RSS readers only show information chronologically, which quickly leads to information overload. SearchFox makes RSS easier and immediately useful, so everyone can be part of the new web experience.”
