Well following my post last week about the new Reeder app, I have decided that it is not for me. For sure I will keep an eye on its development. I believe that through its production, developer Silvio Rizzi is exploring new ways that we can consume our online content, as is The Iconfactory with Tapestry. Tapestry will probably bounce on and off my phone as it goes through beta development. The jury is still out on whether I adopt it full time…I doubting it for the same reasons as Reeder, but I’ll reserve final judgement until it is a more mature app.
For now I’ll stick with using individual applications for the individual platforms. I simply find it easier to follow and keep track of the information that I want. Going back to the newspaper analogy that I used in my original article, for me it is like having a Sunday newspaper and making it last the week, consuming it at my own rate and in the way that I like to - sequentially, backwards/forwards, drilling down deeper into some sections.
