Goodbye Syndirella, Hello SharpReader

Mark Pilgrim pointed to Sam Ruby's brief review of the newly-released SharpReader. "Yeah, that's cool," I think. "I'll check it out."

So I downloaded SharpReader and imported my feeds from Syndirella and was kinda like, "Eh, yeah, that's pretty cool." Ironically, the next post I read in SharpReader was this one, detailing what is ostensibly the end of Syndirella development.

There are already a few things I'm hooked on with SharpReader. For one, it appears to search all subscribed feeds for links that are relevant to each other, then presents them hierarchically. It implements groups of subscriptions. And, it has a nifty link that actually makes use of the comment element in RSS 2.0. Awesome.
