Desktop aggregators are great. They sit there all day, pinging away at sites,
|
|
and as soon as they notice something new, they pop up little windows on your
|
|
desktop, and let you read items. But what about when you go home from work?
|
|
Or what about when you are on a trip? You get totally out of sync, and don't
|
|
know what you've read and haven't read. You are enraged.
|
|
|
|
Feed on Feeds A server side aggregator solves this. It keeps track of what
|
|
items you've read, and keeps happily checking up on your feeds no matter where
|
|
you are. Whenever you want to see what's new, you just bring up a web page and
|
|
scan the newest items. You can mark the items as read so they won't be shown
|
|
again. Or, you can just always show the most recent N items, like the way
|
|
LiveJournal's friends pages work. Also, having the aggregator in your browser
|
|
eliminates the "impedance mismatch" that sometimes occurs between a desktop
|
|
aggregator and your browser. All your native browsing methods work on a
|
|
FEED ON FEEDS page. Open pages in new tabs, bookmark them for later, browse
|
|
whatever way you like.
