yah, a lot has changed since i posted this review.

it’s funny, i was just considering doing a long awaited follow up to this article.

if you want a quick preview of what i’d likely be covering this time around, i’d have to say:

1. bloglines (still the fastest and most reliable in my opinion - but still ugly as sin so..)
2. rojo (it was down recently, i think, some time after it was sold to 37signals - but i like the tags feature)
3. feeds2.0 (ajax interface, tagging, recommendation/personalization)
4. google reader (fast, clean, and familiar - with tagging as labels and stars for favorites)
5. netvibes (actually an ajax homepage but good for getting a gallery view of your favorite feeds)

Hey, this article was around 1 year before. Do you have any update for the comparison? Currently, I am using bloglines. But I am looking for some other online tools that navigator by either sources or tags (or even both) …… Any suggestion?

[…] La web 2.0, a la que recién me estoy sumando, ya me está cansando. Buscando un servicio de lectura de feeds descubrí que hay 18 mil que hacen lo mismo y varias personas que se ocuparon de hacer reviews (1) (2). Todos critican el Google Reader que yo uso y sin embargo no encontré alguno que lo haga mejor: Ninguno, excepto Kinja te junta todos los feeds, sin separarlos por su origen. […]

hi Jorge,

if i’m not mistaken, Rojo will let you sort feeds by: date or relevence.
the link on the left sidebar lets you change between them.
Newsgator will also let you sort by: “newest on top” or “oldest on top”. the drop-down arrow is at the top-center of the page just about the first feed text.
i also sometimes like to change between views when i read my feeds and suggest you take a look at your “preferences” page for your feedreader just cause i’ve sometimes seen this feature tucked away there as well.

hope that helps a bit.

Do you know of any service that, as Google Reader and Kinja groups all the feeds and sorts by date. I like to read them that way and every review critizes them, but it appears to me that all the 3 pane viewers makes you read them in a by site basis, if you get what I mean. Any suggestion?

update: searchfox is back!

i had a feeling that yahoo wouldn’t be able to resist searchfox’s machine learining technology.

i really haven’t seen anything better out there.

[…] Robert Scoble wrote about Search Fox last week, and Matt Marshall mentioned them briefly as well. You should also check out TechBlog, which does an excellent comparison of a number of web based readers, including Search Fox. […]
