If you like news tickers, this RSS reader
is hard to beat..." [CNet]
If you like checking news headlines, tracking eBay
auctions, or keeping up with the latest blogs, then Guru
News Ticker & RSS Reader is must-have software. Guru
delivers international news and information, highlights
articles about topics that matter to you, and does it all
within a single line of text scrolling across your desktop,
taskbar or browser.
Or, try the unique Live Bookmarks feature, which displays an
automatically-updating list of headlines in the left side of
your favorite browser. To save even more desktop space,
minimize the ticker down to a toolbar button and access
headlines through a drop-down menu.
Don't have time to read a full article when an interesting
headline catches your eye? Simply hover the mouse over the
headline to read a pop-up short summary of the story. Wait a
few seconds longer for a drop-down window to open containing
the article, or, with a click of the mouse, open the full
article in your browser.
The Guru News Ticker & RSS Reader can deliver
headlines from as many channels as you like. Stay on top of
the news from channels such as Reuters, ABC and BBC. Track
stocks, keep an eye on eBay auctions, search Yahoo and
Google News. Monitor your favorite blogs, access Google's
GMAIL email accounts. The Guru News Ticker & RSS Reader
is compatible with Unicode news feeds, enabling you to
receive and read headlines in foreign languages such as
Chinese, Japanese and Arabic.
The choice of Internet feeds is vast, and adding new
channels to the program is a breeze, using the built-in Add
Channel Wizard. You can select new channels from the many
pre-configured in Guru or type in URLs for others. You can
even use drag-and-drop to add new channels, and, once you've
entered your username/password in a protected channel's
properties setup, Guru will deliver information from that
channel without asking for your access identification again.
You can further personalize the news Guru delivers by adding
search keywords to your channels. When the program displays
headlines for stories that include your keywords, the
headlines stand out in bold text. Guru is designed to show
newer headlines in a different color, and colors are
customizable, as are fonts and headline scrolling speed.
Change the update schedule to have the program retrieve new
headlines as often as you'd like, from every five minutes to
once in two hours.
The Guru News Ticker text scrolls smooth and flicker-free.
RSS, RDF and ATOM Internet news feed standards are
supported, and the program fully integrates into the Windows
desktop, the Windows taskbar and in Microsoft Internet
Explorer.
The Guru News Ticker runs in four different modes:
1) Inside the Windows taskbar
2) Inside Internet Explorer
3) Inside Internet Explorer showing "Live
Bookmarks"
4) Attached to the desktop (top or bottom of the screen)
Stop surfing for
the news you want. Let Guru News Ticker & RSS Reader deliver it!
