FeedLounge on TalkCrunch
I participated in this week’s TalkCrunch podcast discussion about feed readers. Towards the end I talk a little about some of the things we have coming soon (for those who want a sneak preview).
Scott has posted some of his thoughts and follow-up over here.
Hi,
Enjoyed the podcast.
Does feedburner have any plans to add the option where links open:
- not in a new window
- not in a parent window
BUT
- open in the 3rd pane.
Personally once (or as) I scan a feed and decide to read more I hate opening new tabs/windows to read articles and want to read them within the reader
A rough survey seems about a third of readers have this option … which for me just happens to be the most important.
Just asking
regards
Oops still drinking 1st coffee of day
I of course meant feedlounge (sorry!)
To say more, you talked about rendering html in the podcast but i can’t see a way to have a feed “rendered” like a full web view within one of the three panes of feedlounge, (that is without opening into a full new window)
thx, regards
In this situation we’re talking about the HTML for an item in a feed. Showing the page within an iframe is problematic as some sites will attempt to “break out” of the iframe and take over the main browser window. We have a ‘q’ hotkey to open the current item in a new window/tab, I think many users accomplish what you are asking about by using that feature.
I definitely think feedlounge’s rendering of the post is the best of these 4 (reminiscent of NNW for sure).
