NewsLife
NewsLife is a super easy to use RSS news aggregator for Mac OS X.
NewsLife's simple interface, composed of three panes is intuitive and easy to use. The source list lets you organise your feeds how ever you want. The content area presents each article to you complete with thumbnails, quick navigation links and more. The side bar contains useful features like a search field, quick view buttons, filtering controls and the news bin, which acts as a scrapbook for any articles you have dragged into it. You can also choose to quickly email these items, Digg them, post them to your weblog editor or have them read aloud by your Mac.

Badly designed, poorly executed, Send back to drawing board.
Major failings include:
- Expanding folders automatically while sorting into groups
- Not having a single view for all unread articles
- No control over how much/little is displayed, particularly if feed has full article. Forces you to the website anyway.
Wasted 30min with this application.
It is indeed a nice RSS reader - tried NewsFire which doesn't attract me as much.
Recommended!
I'm using this as my primary RSS agregator and I'm lovin it! It's really simple to use. It doesn't have as many features as NetNewsWire, but i's still worth the money. I love the idea of the News Bin and the tabbed interface :)
Brilliant work. Probably the best rss aggregator there is for macs now.
Nice and simple to use, Looks great and its powerful.
I am dead serious. Newsfire is extremely simple and has alot more functions. How does it get easier than hitting the space bar?
Hmmmm, I think NewsFire
still hold the lead ... but lets see how
this one develops...?
@miyamoto freak: I hope your not serious. It's a lot simpler and easier to use than NewsFire. You also must remember that it's still in beta.
Tried it. It's like a clone of newsfire with some key features missing and it isn't as easy to use.
uh, I dont like the icon
It's a pitty Search does not work. I noticed that on the support forum in december 2006 (!!). Up till now not reaction by ThinkMac Support but "Hmm it looks like the search function might be broken in the beta. I'll get that sorted."
:-(
