Current, A New RSS Reader

I was scrolling through the posts on Kottke.org when I came across a post about Current, a new RSS reader. I love trying RSS readers. I use NewsBlur on the web and NetNewsWire on my Mac. I also have Feedly and Inoreader accounts.

Current is different from these services in that it discards the number of unread posts from the UI. Terry Godier, the developer of Current, said in the announcement blog post "There is no count because counting was the problem."

I like that I pay $9.99 for the software and I don't have to worry about another subscription. It may not replace NewNewsWire but I like to support people trying new ideas, especially if it's a one-time fee.

TechCrunch have a good article of the features available in Current.
