    Shyftr.com - We All Read Together

    These days, feed readers come in all shapes and sizes. They’ve got plenty of options ranging from the more lux and tech savvy organizational tools, to the downright simple product that just provides you with a clean read.

    Shyftr fits in somewhere in between. It’s a feed reader that combines RSS with social networking. Fittingly, the name stands for ‘Share Your Feeds Together’. The networking part revolves solely around the feeds you read and the feeds of your friends and family. Sign up and create a profile including a bio and pic.. You can choose from a variety of feeds in categories such as Food/Home, Politics, or Music. Or you can add your own feeds when you want. Organize your feeds into folders called feed sets. Tag them and they’ll be displayed in a tag cloud. Set your viewing options to view all items, or mark them as read or unread. All your feeds can be shared. Add new friends and check out what they’re reading. It’s that easy..

    Why Shyftr.com might be a killer

    Shyftr is a great way to social network and get informed. It’s a simple application that works like most feed readers but has the added bonus of being a social networking tool as well.

    Shyftr.com In their own words

    “Shyftr stands for Share Your Feeds Together. A feed, or RSS (really simple syndication), is a way for content providers to push news content, blogs, podcasts, photo streams, and other content directly to you as it becomes available. Think of RSS like web site updates that inform you once the content is published; when a content provider makes changes to a particular section or topic on their site, you will receive notification through Shyftr -- no matter what computer you're using. Thousands of your favorite sites, from blogs to news sources to gossip pages, already use RSS for updating overall site changes and topic-specific updates (like the "entertainment" page on your favorite news site).”
