NetVibes is rocking these days.

I checked out netvibes way back when and thought that it wasn’t for me. Also I wasn’t ready to give out my gmail login info to a couple of developers in France.

These days though I work on lots of different machines, and have a need to keep my RSS feeds up to date. So i went looking into online feed readers again. reader.google.com is still no where near ready for prime time, just a horrible interface (and I’m a big google fan). I tried a couple of others but still wasn’ happy. Then I tried out netvibes again to see where they were these days and I have to say im pretty impressed!

Netvibes

The feed reading is nice and fast and since its web based it stays synced across any machine I’m using.

Now the things I need fixed if you guys are listening. :)

  1. Need a way to group feeds together (But keep the read/unread counters visible)
  2. Keyboard shortcuts. I like to read feeds during lunch and I only keep one clean finger to browse up and down through feeds. So please give me some shortcuts
  3. How about a 4th Column on the page. I’ve got the real estate to spare.

Thats about it for now. Keep up the good work.
