RSS feed reader – Liferea

Great little RSS feed reader for you here. I don’t know about you but I’ve so far found the RSS support in Ubuntu a little haphazard. In Windows Vista you can

subscribe to a feed and if you have Outlook 2007 installed it’ll appear in there under your inbox, but with Ubuntu you can subscribe to feeds through Firefox but you then find them in drop-down boxes under the address bar – not hugely convenient.

Liferea is an RSS feed reader that works much like an email client – it is available through the repository (Add/Remove programs) or by typing:

sudo apt-get install liferea

…into the terminal. It doesn’t cost anything and it works, so give it a go.
