I have tried several tools to read blogs and to publish on mine, I wanted to have one that combines all.
- Newsgator
- Newzcrawler
- RSS Bandit
- Sharpreader
I must admit that I always came back to Sharpreader but this might change after the test of Sauce Reader. I saw some options on some ohers that are missing like the possibility to get the newsgroups (something I would really like), to be able to post pictures directly to a ftp account. The tool looks good and is developed with .NET and lots of components:
- log4net: File logging and tracing.
- Lucene.NET: Search engine.
- Microsoft application blocks for .NET:
- Caching: Object caching and management.
- Exception Management: Exception management.
- Updater: Automatic application updates. *SharpZipLib: Compression utilities.
