Portable Vienna: Take Your RSS Feeds Anywhere
Posted by Marvin Sum on 09/12/07 in Internet
Chances are, you’ve heard of Vienna, the popular open source RSS reader for the Mac. Although it offers everything in a sleek and simple user interface, it’s never been portable - all your news feeds are essentially trapped on one Mac.
Enter, Portable Vienna from FreeSMUG. This nifty little app combines the goodness of Vienna into a portable application that can be stored on a USB flash disk. It only requires 10MB of space, so any old flash disk will do. Simply plug it into any Mac and you have all your feeds. Boom!
Portable Vienna features a built-in browser based on Safari, global search, smart folders, styles, blogging integration and much more. If you happen to be a software developer, why not join in the fun? You can obtain the source code for both programs; consider adding a feature or two to the app and if you do, be sure to let us know.

Portable Vienna is just like its bigger brother Vienna. Both pieces of software are open source; download Portable Vienna and check it out.
