rososo:

We just pushed a new design for Rososo. Our goal goal was to simplify and to make the experience more meaningful.

We achieved simplification by removing the logo.

We achieved meaningfulization by making the “fresh” bookmarks bigger and hiding the “stale” bookmarks. The previous design showed stale & fresh bookmarks together, with the only distinction being color: an neon-puke green or rotten orange.

This looks awesome. No more ugly Google Reader. RSS is something I use many times every day so I want my reader to look nice, and Google ain’t famous for beautiful interfaces.

There’s however a feature I hope Rososo will get in the future: A text-only mode for new posts, because I don’t want to load the whole website I’m subscribing to everytime it gets an update. I guess people using mobile phones would love this feature.

It would also be awesome if they made some kind of API that other RSS-readers can sync with, because I guess I still prefer real applications in my dock instead of Fluid-apps.
