I read a lot of authors, and try to keep on top of what they have written. To do this, I used to have to search them in my library every month or so. Once I had 20 authors, it got really tedious. I was searching everywhere for a simple to use RSS to keep me up to date, but none of the free ones were able to create a feed out of my library's website. I didn't want to pay since the whole point of a library is to read books for free. This one creates the feeds easily, and actually works. I have been notified three different times that a new book has been ordered. Now, I can relax with my books and know that when the series continue, I will know and be able to get my next installment. Cons: It does not take me to the page when I "read" it. Once the feed is registered as read, you cannot see it again. (Doesn't bother me because it isn't something I have to refer back to, but be warned.) A little annoying opening a new tab when I ask to create an RSS feed, but that might not be this app.

Overall, this app is great. But it has a couple of flaws.1 - Every now and again, I find an RSS feed that it isn't compatible with.2 - Clicking the episodes in most RSS feed apps opens a link to content, but some stories I try to access from my RSS Bot list just get removed from the list without opening the content

This little app has stood the test of time in my fickle world of little Mac utilities. It’s a simple way to add feeds with filtering to all your favorite sites without annoying notifications or distractions. When I’m free for a moment, I simply check my feeds and get the content I’m looking for without any other noise. Safari will try to add any RSS feed you click to the reading list. I just say no, and then RSS reader will pop up and ask to add it there. Set a filter if necessary, and off you go. Simple, unobtrusive, and clean.

Sits at the top right of the Menu Bar, where it shows the universal RSS icon, easy to access all my feeds, all in one place and easy to add new ones, too, just drag a URL into the “Add Feed” window. When all feeds have been read, icon becomes white, and new items cause the icon to show orange again. Super simple and out of the way until you need it, just click the icon to see what’s been posted. Can’t believe it’s free, too.
