“RSS reader with a newspaper look”
by Cyril Roger
The Times RSS reader lets you enjoy the news in a newspaper style interface. With this application you can read all your feeds and customize them from your desktop.
The newspaper design is pretty cool and although you can't move sections around, you can still create pages, where you can drag and drop feeds. All your pages are accessible from the top of the interface. Times comes with a large lists of feeds which you can drag into your pages, but you can also add your own urls.
Instead of starring articles you like, in Times you stack them up. Drag an article onto the wooden stack to select it. Clicking on the stack will show all your chosen articles and display their titles.
Although I enjoyed the newspaper design, I was a little disappointed by the reading experience. Every time you click on an article it will fold up the front page to reveal the article. This can obstruct the article somewhat. I also found having to click on the fold to go back to the home page a little annoying.
Despite this small reading mishap, Times is an original RSS reader, definitely off the beaten track. Give it a try if you miss reading newspapers.

From the publisher of Times
Times is a new type of newsreader for Mac OS X Leopard. By rethinking the way you read news, we've created the best possible news experience straight from the ground up.
Instead of treating news like email (as most RSS readers do), Times presents you with headlines and photos from a variety of sources all in one place, letting you more easily discover the news you want to read. Like your own personal newspaper, you can put feeds into separate areas, create pages for different subjects, and more.
