Another Way to Get RSS Feeds on Your PDA!

FOAF

"The newsreader NewsMonster has the ability to use Friend of a Friend data. It also provides for export to PDA's and reads all versions of RSS. Interesting, I'll have to download it and play with it a bit when I have some time.

As for FOAF, I think the idea has some potential uses. However, as I understand it, FOAF metadata should be stored as a separate file. I'd like the ability to place it in the HEAD section of a document, as well as pointing to another file." [Catalogablog]

This is what I'm talking about! I really believe that RSS news aggregators are a much better way to keep up with your favorite sites on the go, especially on small devices. The overhead is much less, even in a 3G or WiFi environment. I'm snowed under at work for the next week, but I really want to try NewsMonster on my Clie!
