As a blogger who’s rss feed is consumed by many different RSS readers, I know how this growing trend in new delivery is taking hold.

I personally use NewsMac to keep tabs on hot topics on my mac, but i am very excited to see this new product on the KDE/Linux desktop.

aKregator is a feed reader that supports RSS/RDF and Atom types of news feeds. As a standalone application the aKregator offers your standard features. However aKregator can also be embedded in Kontact (KDE Mail/PIM). I have really like the Mail app on my powerbook but I wish it had rss built in. i think it is a natural way to visit this information. It appears that they have done a very good job of this in aKregator.
