Hi All,

Here is the "idea" for the RSS Reader. Please put in your ideas and
contribute.

1)) Similarly,
http://visualrinse.com/2008/09/24/how-to-build-a-simple-rss-reader-with-jquery/
might help you; for "natural query" ?

2) News Blur is an excellent implementation. I have written to the
developer for an "offline version" because to be honest, I don't
understand why should I trust my "data" to an unknown person. Luckily,
he's made an open source solution. If you search Duckduckgo for news blur,
you'd find a lot of relevant links. This needs to be implemented in Opera.
https://github.com/vvarp/NewsBlur is the source code for the application.

I wonder how much "natural language processing" can take place in the
offline mode. He's done it in a simple manner. What others have done by
"PostRank", he's done on the fly by perhaps Keyword Filtering.

3) Last but not the least. There is another open source RSS reader called
as Vienna on Mac OS.
Here's something I have liked : http://www.vienna-rss.org/?page_id=27 i.e.
ability to get the complete article in the reader. I was looking for this
to be implemented in Opera

Thanks!

Indeed reading the whole article is a nice feature to have.
