Ever wish there was a better way to read all your favorite websites without having to slowly click your way through your bookmarks list? Well there is and it's called NetNewsWire. It takes all your favorite websites and puts them into one window. With it, I can can read over a hundred websites every day in about 30 minutes. I use it to stay up to date on the news, read my friend's blogs and keep track of apple software updates. Once you've got it installed, you'll see that this website, NPMi Software, is already loaded into your list of sites you read!



A list of all the recent updates appear on the left and the content itself below that.



Whenever there's a new update to this site (or any site to which you subscribe) it will be automatically loaded into your list of subscriptions.

Here's how to add all the sites you read:

Well all you have to do to add a site to your subscriptions is click on that RSS button. When you do it will pop up in NetNewsWire and ask you to confirm:



Another way to add a site is to click on the "Subscribe" button in the top left and enter the website URL.

So there you go. Pretty soon you'll be reading your favorite sites much faster giving you much more time to be productive at work! Just don't blame me when you get addicted to RSS feeds and your list gets into the hundreds!
