Yesterday I wrote about a quick way to get RSS feeds delivered to your inbox, mainly for those that don’t want to deal with a "real" RSS reader.

For those that do want to learn more about RSS and are looking for a great way to stay up to date with their favorite site I suggest checking out NewsGator.

The NewsGator feed readers used to be commercial (read: paid programs). As of last week, their entire suite of readers are free. This includes their desktop reader and mobile readers for Windows Mobile, Blackberry and Java enabled phones.

The best part about the different NewsGator programs is that you only have to configure them once; your favorite feeds are saved on their servers and can be accessed through any of their applications.

Let me clarify; you can subscribe to an RSS feed on your desktop, and that feed will automatically be subscribed to on your phone. Or you can read an article on your online NewsGator page, and that article will show as "read" on your desktop.

It really is a great application, and has saved me from death by boredom many times when I’ve been stuck on the tarmac.

So much information is available through RSS nowadays that you need to be careful you don’t get a bad case of information overload!

Thankfully NewsGator makes it very simple to find RSS feeds, and even offer a "panic button" when you are drowning in unread items (like I am most of the time).

The following versions of NewsGator are now available for free:

• NewsGator FeedDemon for Windows
• NetNewsWire for the Mac
• NewsGator to go for Windows Mobile, Blackberry and Java
• NewsGator for Microsoft Outlook
• NewsGator online

Head on over to NewsGator and signup. Don’t forget to add this site to your list of RSS feeds!
