Gems from the Internets

I'm looking at this little gem -

GMailRSS - by Karthikeyan Sankaralingam

Motivation

After toying around with a bunch of RSS readers I concluded that using GMail as an RSS reader is a very good option, for the following main reasons:
  • Since GMail stores all state on the server, it doesn't matter where you login from to get your RSS fix! You can read a couple of feeds at work, a couple at home from a different machine etc. and everything is synchronized. This was the killer feature I was missing in all RSS readers.
  • GMail's infinite archiving capability effectively creates a personal news archive for everyone.
  • GMail's search helps you search easily through RSS feeds.
  • Individual messages can be marked as read and unread, so its easy to track what you are reading
