Good Noows - socially oriented RSS reader
Web Services / / December 24, 2019
I do not think it will make a great opening to say that a dominant position in the field of RSS readers with a wide margin takes Google Reader. Good feature set, high-speed performance, stability make this service the best choice for the vast number of users. However, competitors are not asleep, and periodically attempt to present his vision of the ideal of service for reading news. With one of these alternatives, called Good Noows, Today we met.
To start using this service do not need to register - is enough to have a Google account, Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn. Sign in with one of these accounts, we see that the reader already has a certain amount of feed offered by us developers. However, the default source is not all fit, so click the button Settings and add your favorite news feeds. This can be done individually by adding links or just feed service OPML file.
Here in the right column, you can configure the visual display style, of which there are as many as ten kinds - from a simple list of headlines to newspaper templates with illustrations and map text. An interesting feature is that you can choose for each section of your display style. You can also increase or decrease the font size using the special buttons on the toolbar.
This panel has a button to automatically transfer news in different languages, Screening of sources, as well as the search box. Another feature is the ability to save your searches as filters for later quick application. Using button PR You can build on elements of popular (PostRank data service used).
If you want to share the exciting news with your friends, then just click on the link Share article and there will be a special panel, with which you can send a link to Facebook, Twitter, email and so on. But the tight integration with Good Noows Meebo service will allow you to what is called "on the spot" discuss the news in one of the most popular instant messaging system such as AIM, Facebook Chat or Google Talk.
In spite of a number of interesting features, service Good Noows, unfortunately, still very far from perfect. The disadvantages I would first of all took the low speed and the lack of synchronization with Google Reader. But the proposed concept of maximum integration news reader with social services may be to the taste of many users, all the more so by the statements ZNet Labs - creator of the service - in the future Good Noows will evolve towards a greater socialization.
