Are you an Mac fanatic? If so, how do you prefer reading the Mashable feed? Via a third-party Web-based service? Or through a more local piece of software?
For those of you who can’t quite get yourselves to adopt a strictly Web-based lifestyle when it comes to consuming the daily dish, and like to work with pretty confabulations that look thematically in tune with the desktop environment of Mac OS X 10.4+, you can get yourself an install of Newsfire - free of cost [WebWorkerDaily]. That’s right, you can save your pennies now while enjoying some great Web news (wink, wink) with a great reader.
Sure, you could snap up a copy of NetNewsWire for the express price of zero dineros from the developers at Newsgator if that’s your inclination. But hey, you’ve now got a choice of premier wares. That isn’t such a bad situation to be in, eh? Of course, we won’t play favorites. You get to determine which suits your needs/moods best.
Want to give NewsFire a go? Have at it. It's free for all.
