What is Desktop Ticker?

Desktop Ticker is a free RSS and Atom web feed aggregator application that allows you to keep an eye on the latest news from your favourite websites whilst you work on your computer. Once feeds have been added, the article titles scroll horizontally across the screen. Article summaries are displayed when the mouse cursor is placed over an article title, and the full article can be opened in a web browser by clicking on the article title. The RSS feeds are automatically downloaded after the specified interval to show updated content.

Portable
Nice GUI

Dislikes

Cannot change the font
Cannot make background transparent
Did not work out of the box behind company proxy

This is the best portable desktop news ticker I've found so far, but it's still not perfect.
