Snarf down this white label RSS aggregator

Uncategorized 0 Minutes

Ever want your own RSS reader with your own feeds? Why would you want to do that? Well, to control what your readers see. And also to get a reader out there that has your own brand on it. I think I’ll load this on my dad’s computer so he can see my feeds.

Anyway, the reader is Snarfer.

Here’s one they created for me (this is an EXE/application that you load if you have Windows).

I can see a lot of uses for this. It’s a nice, competent, RSS aggregator — three pane style. It won’t make me give up Google Reader, but for doing a custom thing this is pretty interesting.

Literally. He had the first ride in the first Tesla. Siri was launched in his house. He's been the first to share all sorts of technologies and companies with you, from Flipboard to Pandora to Instagram. Today he's focusing on mixed reality, AKA "next-generation augmented reality" which will include a new user interface for EVERYTHING in your life (IoT, Smart Cities, driverless cars, robots, drones, etc). That's based on his view thanks to his past experience as futurist at Rackspace. Best place to find Scoble? On his Facebook profile at https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble He has been a technology blogger since 2000, was one of five people who built Microsoft's Channel 9 video blog/community, worked at Fast Company Magazine running its TV efforts, and has been part of technology media businesses since 1993. ++++++++ SPEAKER PITCH: Apple and Facebook now have revealed their Augmented Reality strategies, which means your business needs one too. Rely on Robert Scoble, the world's top authority on AR, to bring to your conference what businesses should do next. SPEECH ABSTRACT #1: TITLE: The Fourth Transformation: What's next in mixed reality (AR and AI) and the future of technology? Here's an example of this talk at Leade.rs in Paris in April, 2017: https://youtu.be/52_0JshgjXI Why "the Fourth Transformation?" Soon we will have phones and glasses that do full on augmented reality. Everything you look at will potentially be augmented. This world is coming in late 2017 with a new iPhone from Apple, amongst other products. Microsoft is betting everything on its HoloLens glasses that do mixed reality and the industry is spending many billions of dollars in R&D and funding new companies like Magic Leap. This future will be the user interface for IoT, Smart Cities, autonomous cars, robots, drones, and your TV. This is a big deal and Robert will take you through what mixed reality is and how it will change every business.

Scoble will bring you the best from his travels visiting R&D labs, startups, and innovators around the world. He views the world through his rose-colored-mixed-reality glasses, which will be the new user interface for self driving cars, Smart Cities, IoT, and many other things in our world. He'll send you off with some lessons for companies both large and small. ++++++++ SPEECH ABSTRACT #3: "Personalized Meaning: What is Augmented Reality For?" As we enter a far more technological world where even cars drive themselves, I predict we'll see a blowback toward the analog, more authentic world.

  5. Pingback: Free Branded Custom RSS Reader for Your Readers

  6. I downloaded it and it seems kewl, but I would not call it ‘branded’. It is nice to see the feeds that you look at, but it does not exactly show ‘scobleizer’ other than your blog. I always though I read a lot – more than 100 pages a day, but it seems you got me beat if these are all your feeds!

  12. I tried out snarfer earlier this year. Clean and quick, but I prefer friendlier interfaces. I use google or pageflakes, mostly. Surely the time is coming where rss agg apps will just be standard browser plugins, like mozilla’s various bar efforts?

  14. This is neat, but not new. I created the original fully branded RSS reader (entire software is brandable as if client owns it) back in 2003 (Tristana.org) and sold it in 2006 to a Texas based company. It too is a Windows based desktop reader. With my latest business, using the same idea, I’ve also created fully brandable screencasting software for free distribution by client (http://www.webinaria.com/custom).

  18. I can see this being really helpful for ISP and web service providers that are providing for non-tech users. They could offer an application like this that sits in the user’s tray and provides updates about service interruptions and downtime, something that was previously the realm of email, but could be made available in a way that requires even less user interaction.
