What is Rnews?

Rnews is a server-side feed aggregator that can manage your hundreds of RSS and Atom feeds. It is:

  • Easy. You interact with the aggregator with your web browser, where you're going to be reading your news anyway.
  • Accessible. Read news from anywhere you have a net connection, whether work, the beach house, or a coffee shop.
  • Consistent. What you've seen and what you haven't is kept consistent, no matter where you are.

Rnews is written in PHP, and is similar in functionality to a few other open source projects, but has a significantly different interface. It is free, open-source software, so you can download it now and get started.

Requirements: MySQL 4.1 or later, PHP 4 or PHP 5, and Apache. Rnews has successfully been hosted on Windows XP, FreeBSD, Debian, and Mac OS X 10.3, and browsed with Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, Chrome, and others.
