RSSOwl RSS RDF Atom Newsreader description
A RSS & RDF newsreader written in Java using SWT as graphic library.

SSOwl is a free RSS / RDF / Atom newsreader written in Java using SWT as graphic library.

With RSSOwl it is possible to read all RSS versions (includes RDF).

RSS ("Really Simple Syndication" or "Rich Site Summary") is a document specification that gives users the power to collect and organize Web-based news and information in a more efficient manner.

Applications that collect data from RSS-compliant sites are called RSS readers or "aggregators". RSSOwl is such an application. It lets you gather, organize, update, and store information from any compliant source in a convenient, easy to use interface, save selected information in various formats for offline viewing and sharing, and much more.

RSSOwl is also free, fast, cross-platform
, and unobtrusive. It's easy to install, easy to use, and easy to move.

Why "Owl"? The owl is a traditional symbol of wisdom, and a quiet, efficient hunter. You'll find RSSOwl's "big eyes" a big help when scanning the Web's vast array of RSS resources.

Here are some key features of "RSSOwl RSS RDF Atom Newsreader":

· High performance and native Look and Feel that uses the operation-system GUI theme
· Great platform support: Use RSSOwl on Windows, Linux (32 and 64 Bit), Mac and Solaris
· Import / Export newsfeeds with OPML (Outline Processor Markup Language)
· Generate PDF / RTF / HTML documents from any news including aggregations
· Use drag and drop to manage your favorites in unlimited nested categories
· Powerfull Newsfeed searchengine working with keywords

· Display news in the internal browser (IE, Mozilla and Safari supported)
· More than two-hundred sample feeds in 33 categories already included
