Why I like SharpReader better
if there are only two things that are missing from SharpReader , they would be:
- an “author“ column
- a “Flag for later“ column
That's it. Really. Today, SharpReader is , to me, much more useful that, say, NewsGator or FeedDemon. Why?
- It's a power tool. Everything works fast, and you get almost instant feedback for all your actions
- With outlook based browsing, you're dependant on outlook to “show you the money“, and sometimes that may take a while to load a post into the outlook window.
- Outlook doesn't show you the amount of unread posts in folders down the hierarchy.With SharpReader, I can have all the “important“ folders closed up and still know that I have some new stuff in my “important news“ folder somewhere (I have 3 sub folders in there)
- Filtering is bleeding fast in SharpReader
- No fancy-shmancy nice GUI stuff. Just pure information (sort of like Total Commander)
- I can view a large amount of information at the same time, in a hierarchical manner.
- In outlook, I have much less screen space (feature request for outlook - “Full screen“ mode!) to view all the folders/feeds.
- the awesome “aggregate links“ for each post feature (which I'm not sure how it works)
- It's simple to use!
