The aim of OSFeeds is to dig up and aggregate the latest news about Macs, Microsoft, and Linux, the major operating systems out there. So here's what you get: on the front page, you'll find feeds organized by source among which are Lifehacker, Digg, Gizmodo, and Cnet; a roll over preview box gives you a snapshot of what the story's about; below the text you'll find the latest Youtube videos and podcasts pertaining to whichever OS you've chosen to read about. Clicking on a headline brings keeps you on site, bringing the article to you. The site also has a search box if you should happen to be looking for a specific topic; you can also keep track of the most popular links for each topic across the site. If there's a feed you'd like to see added, drop them a line.

| Some questions | |||
|
|
|
Isn't this something you could easily do yourself with your own feed reader?
Rather than linking you directly to the outbound source, OSFeeds brings you to another screen with a brief summary, prompting you to click yet again to get to the whole story—a more direct approach would seem to wanting. Also some links don't even work. The presentation is a little low key, could use some sprucing up.
