I’m looking to replace my current aggregator, NewzCrawler. It’s become a CPU hog, often consuming every CPU cycle to the point that my XP system becomes unstable. Here’s my list of requirements:
- Stability. I’m not looking to become a beta tester for another app. I want something that works.
- Movable Type integration. If I see something in my aggregator, I want to be able to automatically post it to my weblog.
- Feed sorting. I like being able to see posts by feed, but I will also occasionally (especially after a long period of not reading my aggregator) want a “newspaper” view where I can just focus on items arranged chronologically, independent of source. Whatever aggregator I choose, I’d like it to handle both.
- Web-based. Ideally, I’d like to just install something on my webserver and access it through a browser.
In doing a little digging, I found Feed on Feeds, a PHP/mySQL RSS reader that lives on a server. It doesn’t appear to allow me to automatically post to Movable Type, but this looks to be on the right track.
Which aggregator are you using? Which would you recommend?
