RSSOwl
RSSOwl collects
data
from RSS-compliant sites. Specifically, it lets you gather, organize,
update, and store information from
any RSS-compliant source in a convenient, easy to use interface, save
selected information in various formats for offline viewing and
sharing, and much more.
It is written in Java,
and uses SWT as a widget toolkit to allow it to fit in with the look
and feel of different operating
systems while remaining cross-platform.
Version 2.0 is currently in development. Preview of RSSOwl 2.0
