Bloglines Beta To Challenge Google Reader
Bloglines released a new public beta of their popular web-based RSS reader. The new beta is optimized to run well in Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox.
The new beta has several new features including a customizable start page with drag and drop AJAX functionality, three feed viewing options including a "Quick View," "3-Pane View," and a "Full View." New enhanced AJAX drag-and-drop makes feed management easy, plus a new “Unread System” that makes marking feed items clearer, quicker and easier.
I have been beta testing the beta for a while now. I am personally strongly considering switching back to Bloglines from Google Reader. I was going to do a huge review, but due to SES, I just didn't have time.
No need to worry, Read/Write Web has a comprehensive review of the new beta Bloglines, plus there is a lot of coverage at Techmeme. You can also read Gary Price's write up at ResourceShelf.
