Good morning,One nice feature of most stand alone readers is that they will update the feeds during the day and notify you if there are new headlines. This particular reader (that I've only seen for 30 seconds) also gives a separate list of all of the new headlines from today. This is nice because you don't need to look through every feed to find out what's new. Not sure if this is a feature that IE7 / Firefox share.

What are the advantages of this stand-alone feed reader over the one built into IE 7, which seems to work fine with JAWS?----- Original Message ----- From: "Dana S.

I haven't actually used it much, since installing IE, quite some time ago; so I'm a bit hazy on the details. But I'm quite sure I never had to do anything as radical as custom highlight assignments.Blessed Be, Namaste, Dana that's Dana, D A N A, NOT Donna, D O N N AIf your synthesizer pronounces them identically, instruct your customized pronunciation dictionary that Dana=dayna.D.

Noticed that it requires some custom highlight assignments. Does anyone know if 2.9 works "out of the box"?Thanks, Everett----- Original Message ----- From: "Adrian Spratt" <Adrian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, December 22, 2008 7:57 AM Subject: Re: RSS FeedsEverett,Yesterday the ever reliable Dana Leslie posted the following suggestion:For those who do not have IE7, I recommend FeedReader, as an RSS client.
