Rososo: A Simple News Reader that Works

September 27th, 2008 | 4 Comments | Posted in Tips N Tricks

There are lots of bookmark services and news readers out there with lots of cool features. But sometimes, you just need a simple news reader that works. If you are looking for such a news reader, then Rososo might be just the one for you.

Rososo is a very simple news reader without the complications of other RSS readers. It’s so simple that it doesn’t even show the title of the latest news article of the blog you are subscribed to. It just displays the name of the blog and when it was last updated. If a blog or site has not been updated in a few days or so, it goes to the stale bookmarks. This way you can stay up to date with your favorite blogs without going to the actual site and remembering the title of the last post. It will just show you if your favorite blog has been updated or not.

Rososo is actually a pretty cool service. Its simplicity just plainly works. I think that Rososo will work great on bookmarking blogs that does not update frequently. Using it to check out blogs that update everyday with four of five posts takes away its usefulness.
