NewsPiper
-
Version
3.6.0
NewsPiper is an RSS feed reader, news aggregator, web
grabber and news ticker in one program. It allows you
to monitor your favorite news sites (cnn.com,
foxnews.com, etc.), RSS feeds or blogs, retrieve
necessary news and display it in the usual three panes
newsreader interface (channels, news titles, news
details) or scroll it in a special bar (NewsBar)
placed at the top of your screen. For each shown
headline, you can open the "full story" page in your
default web browser simply by clicking on the headline.
Another useful feature of NewsPiper Pro is "news
pronouncing": you can set it up to pronounce news
headlines and details from one or more channels so
NewsPiper can be used as a "radio tuner" for your
favorite RSS feeds or Web sites.
Adding a new channel is very easy: you can manually
enter the URL of a web site or an RSS feed, or drag-
and-drop it from a web browser or another program, or
simply paste it in from the clipboard.
You can also add channels from an "Online channel
catalog" containing many popular web sites and RSS
feeds.
In addition, NewsPiper checks your connection status
according to a schedule you setup and changes the
color of the icon in the system tray bar accordingly:
green means you are online, red indicates offline.
