RSS Blog Reader plugin for Visual Studio

I've blogged about Morrison Schwartz freeware programs before, but they've recently added an RSS Blog Reader plugin that lets you blog from within Visual Studio.

Features include:

  • Support for folders or individual feeds
  • Drag-and-drop support for feeds and folders
  • Preview a new feed as you add it
  • Easy control of all feed properties
  • Automatic and on-demand refresh of feeds
  • Automatic feed search based on a site URL
  • Keyword searching for published feedsusing Synic8
  • Keyword search within all subscribed feeds
  • Import of feed subscriptions from an OPML file

I look at such things .. and ask myself .. WHY !! OH WHY !!!

I guess for a company that I'm working in that frowns at my reading blogs, I could cheat and read blogs right thru Vstudio .. Hmm !!

It's not my style, but I've heard people request it before. :)

As a developer on this product, I am happy that word is getting out so quickly, but a little curious as to why more people aren't mentioning that the RSS Reader comes with the C# source code.

It's open source, and we'd like to strongly encourage people to make it their own, and add whatever features they really like.
