Blogs had become one of the powerful ways to communicate. The best way to Keep track of all these blog is RSS.

RSS has become the best feature for blogger and readers. Whenever any new post is rolled out readers get notified about it using the RSS readers. There are plenty of RSS readers available in the market for free.

Some of the popular RSS readers are Google reader, Active RSS readers, Opera feed reader, Mozilla Thunderbird and many more.

If you looking for trick to improve your RSS feed readers count read my article on : How to increase your feed readers. You can also use wordpress plugin to increase your RSS subscriber count.

The importance of RSS feeds can be determined by the fact that all of the major Internet browsers are now bundles with inbuilt RSS readers.

I have tried many of these RSS readers including Google reader, Mozilla inbuilt reader and many more but after trying Feeddemon it become my one way RSS aggregator.feeddemon thumb

Feeddemon is a desktop client so it enable me to read the news even when   Internet is now working.

Feeddemon lets you organize your feeds easily. You can read the feeds and click on any link and inbuilt browser will open that page for you.

Though I have configured it to open link within my default browser (Mozilla Firefox) so that I can use my easy comment Firefox plugin to add instant comments.

Once you install Feed demon you will get an option to Register for Feed-demon or skip it. I will recommend register yourself with feed-demon because after this you will have access to your feeds everywhere. It means you can simply login using your registered user name and password anywhere to access all your subscribed feeds. I highly recommend this.

I have to monitor almost 100+ blogs at once and look for updates so that I can keep myself updated with the latest on going and feed demon simple interface empowers me for that.

Feeddemon has also an option of Auto-Discovery of feeds, so all you need to enter is the URL and it will auto discover the feeds. This comes very handy when you like any website/blog but the feed link is not visible or not prominent.

You can try auto-discovery feature by typing www.shoutmeloud.com in the subscribe button.Feed demon panic button

Panic Button :Suppose you have almost 4K+ unread feeds , you can simple hit the panic button and feeds older then 4-5 days will be marked as read.

Depending on your Internet speed you can set the check for feeds update time limit. Set it between 2-5 if you have fast Internet speed else keep it more then that depend on your Internet speed. You can check your Internet speed by referring to our previous article on 10 best way to check your Internet speed.
