NewsFire 1.6 (v80)
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is a booming technology for sharing information on the web. Popular news sites like Yahoo!, BBC News, The New York Times, CNET and Wired, along with tens of thousands more>>
NewsFire 1.6 (v80) is an effective utility created for sharing information on the web.
Popular news sites like Yahoo!, BBC News, The New York Times, CNET and Wired, along with tens of thousands of personal blogs and independant media sites all publish RSS feeds that you can subscribe to.
Naturally, the volume of information being published every second is hard to grasp and keep abreast of. If you had to visit each site and click 'Refresh', you'd never get anything done. Enter NewsFire, which is like a turbocharged bookmark menu for your news sites. NewsFire constantly checks for freshly published news from your list of news feeds and notifies you. There's even some eye-candy involved - NewsFire's list of news feeds is animated just like iChat, so feeds swoop around as news is discovered.
There's a variety of RSS readers on Mac OS X, but none offer the style of NewsFire. NewsFire is brimming with Aqua-beauty and a rich, dynamic user experience. The others feel aesthetically unpleasant, bloated, and stuck in an interface paradigm that makes no sense for RSS. The kitchen sink is deliberately not included in NewsFire - it is intensely focused on simplicity. It snubs complexity for a minimalist interface that is intuitive, unobtrusive, and a total joy to use.
NewsFire supports the two major feed formats - RSS and Atom.
It also imports and exports OPML, a standard bookmark-like file format for news feeds. Importing your feeds from another newsreader is dead-simple!
Major Features:
- RSS for Everyone: Simple to use and packed with features, NewsFire makes it a joy to keep atop the constant flow of information on the web.
- Smart & Organized: It's easy to filter and organize your news with NewsFire's smart groups. Build your own feeds with custom rules, or drag and drop to create groups of related content.
- Fit & finished: NewsFire's feed list, floating new items to the top with smooth animation, is an original. It looks good. It moves well. It delivers the polished Mac experience you expect.

BrowserWars X 1.2.4

Unfortunately, Apples version favors a very few (ahem) select applications more>> BrowserWars picks up where Apple left off in providing an easy way to change your default web applications. Unfortunately, Apples version favors a very few (ahem) select applications. Installing a new version of your preferred non-listed software often causes OS X to loose track of your settings, defaulting back to Internet Explorer or Mail.app. There is also a notable lack of OS X newsreader applications listed. BrowserWars fixes this by adding every web, mail and news application that we could think of. Upgrading or reinstalling your favorite programs now will no longer revert your settings to what Apple thinks is best.
Mac OS X 10.1 or later.
Version 1.2.4 adds the following:
- Fixed bundle identifier for Chimera, again.
- Improved Readme.

yEnc TZ is a simple, freeware, program that decodes yEnc encoded files.
yEnc TZ is much less useful than it used to be, because the current version of MT-Newswatcher, version 3.4, handles yEncs directly, making this program unnecessary. But yEnc TZ may still be useful if you are using a newsreader with poor yEnc support.<<less
