TIP
The popularity of webfeeds began in the blogosphere, as bloggers began to read each
other??™s material and link back and forth to each other. So if you??™re reading a blog in
Akregator and click a link to another blog (or other site with a feed), you may find yourself
wanting to subscribe to that other site too. This is easy to do in Akregator.
Look for the link to the feed on the page you??™re reading. Click the text link or the
orange icon and drag it to the feed window. The New Feed dialog box will appear, with
the URL already pasted. Click OK to add.
Podcast fans might find Akregator a little clunky to use. It will download attachments to a
webfeed, but there is no automatic stream or download for multimedia files, and there??™s
no simple way to designate a player once a podcast has been downloaded. The Amarok
audio player handles podcasts better in KDE.
Blam!
Blam! (with the exclamation point as the focal point of its logo) is a simple looking GTK
application designed more for folks who know what they want out of a feed reader/aggregator.
