Basil Salad Software today announced the immediate availability of News Anchor 1.0 – a stunning fusion between traditional media and web 2.0 technologies.
News Anchor Information
News Anchor is an alternative RSS/ATOM feed reader targeted for the auditory group of Mac OS X users. Instead of treating feeds like e-mail and display them visually, News Anchor utilizes text-to-speech technology to present a television-like news broadcast. Unlike television, users may customize the broadcast by selecting which feeds that they subscribe to. News Anchor is the perfect choice for catching up with feeds while having meals due to its one-click hands-free operation. News Anchor is compatible for Mac OS X 10.5 and up for both Intel and PowerPC based Macs.
