Adobe Enters The RSS Fray

by Cathy on February 17th, 2007

Amit Agarwal over at Digital Inspiration reports that Adobe has introduced its feedreader call myFeedz. Here’s what he has to say about it:

Unlike other web based RSS readers like Google Reader or Bloglines, myFeeds tries to learn from what you read regularly and accordingly displays news items / blog posts that might be of interest to you.

myFeedz can read a list of your favorite feeds (via OPML files) and give you a personalized river of news view. Another useful feature is that you can sort articles by date or by popularity. Your reading history is also taken into account while calculating what stories are more relevant for you.

myFeedz screen capture.

I signed up and entered 7 keywords. It returned 4 articles! That’s it. I think it is trying to teach me what to read, not the other way around. I’ll mess around with some more. And yes - the same 4 articles appeared after I clicked on ‘Show All’.

I’m underwhelmed. Have any of you tried this new offering?
