• LazyFeed: Follow Latest News on your Favorite Topics
• Individurls: Create Your Own News Aggregator Site

Instead of reading your favorite blog, now you can listen to it. PimpMyNews is a website which lets you do just that. It converts text on your favorite blog posts and news site into a recorded voice which you can listen on your PC, mp3 player, iPod or iPhone. You can get your favorite posts delivered to you and listen to them when you’re on the road. Also you can share and rate your favorite posts.

I should also mention that this app delivers almost accurate results. I tried it with a few blogs in it’s list and the conversion from text to speech was accurate and impressive. You can also report mispronunciations and new blog feeds to them so that they can make the required changes.

Apart from RSS feed, FeedMySearch gives you an option to instantly add the feed to your favorite online starpage or feedreader including Netvibes, Google Reader and My Yahoo.

Immediately after you install the ReadAir application on your computer, you’ll be prompted to enter your Google login information.

Once you enter the user details wait for a few seconds until ReadAir syncs itself with your Google Reader account. The ReadAir interface is quite similar to Google Reader, maybe looks a bit nicer. See screenshot below.

Furthermore, you have an option to control how often ReadAir should sync with Google Reader and check for feed updates.

The only problem I had is with ‘Add Feed’ option, it simply didn’t work for me. The only way I could subscribe to a new feed is via a Google Reader account. Few moments later it would appear in ReadAir as well.

Features:

• Full synchronization with your Google Reader Account.
• Partial supports for Google Reader keyboard shortcuts.
• Search feeds, tag feeds, Subscribe/Unsubscribe from feeds.*
• Resize viewing panes as you like.
• Automatic software update feature.
• Option to auto login.
• Coming soon: offline mode, full support for Google Reader keyboard shortcuts, visual themes (XP, Vista etc.) and more.
