If you are not sure why you need this Version 3.0 upgrade or prefer to use Google Reader, read This!
FeedDemon 3.0 packs some new features:
Google Reader:
Google Reader is the world’s most popular web-based RSS application. One of the most popular feature requests from Feed Demon and NetNewsWire users was synchronization with Google Reader.
New integration between Google Reader and FeedDemon has enabled automatic syncing of your feeds, shared items and item tags with Google Reader. This implies that if you tag or ‘quick tag’ icons of any feed item or attach a text note within Google Reader, it appears in your Feed Demon as well. Also now if you read any feed in Google Reader, it will get marked as “read” in FeedDemon and vice versa.
Twitter Integration:
Now with new seamless Twitter integration you could actually use FeedDemon 3 as your twitter client. It has now support for short URLs. It now has intelligent hyperlinks. FeedDemon, will now automatically find Twitter usernames, web URLs as well as #hashtags present within a tweet and convert them into hyperlinks.
Feed Demon 3 has several features such as support for subscribing to your Twitter Timeline, Search Twitter from Feed Demon amongst others. You can also reply to tweets from within Feed Demon 3.0 using the twitter reply button.
But despite these new features many users seem to prefer Tweet Deck over Feed Demon’s new Twitter Integration. While some have welcomed these features, especially Intelligent hyperlinks, they feel it could slow down the post speed. But, It remains to be seen if this theory is true. But now you have an option to use FeedDemon as your twitter client.
Other Features:
1. It has a redesigned UI including new “Subscriptions Home” page with popular videos and articles extracted from your feeds.
2. It supports easy item sharing – allows to share the articles with others with just one click.
