Microsoft UniveRSS 0.9

Publisher's Description:

UniveRSS is a 3D RSS feed reader for Windows Vista. It leverages the Windows Presentation Foundation and provides a stunning way of visualizing RSS feeds and their content. It introduces a full-screen 3D universe where galaxies represent the folders of your RSS feed directory, and the stars are represented by the spinning cubes that hold the feed information. Size and position of the feed cubes indicate how many unread items they contain.

This is a technology demonstration, showcasing the Windows Presentation Foundation technologies which are native to Vista and have been backported to XP. This isn't supposed to be a practical RSS feed reader.

This also works on XP! (with little crashes) It's worth a shot.

Agreed with rrife , the whole point of this is not to provide you with a favorite RSS proggie, instead, to show and demostrate the WPF capabilities, that is why also this is OpenSource... otherwise, since when MS made a program Open? cmon...

I think you guys are missing the point. I'm pretty sure they're not marketing this as a legit RSS feed reader, but as an example of what is possible with the WPF and Vista. It's purely an example to show off to potential developers the kinds of things that can be done with a minimal amount of coding. They probably would have been better off doing a file browser or something that could be run w/o an internet connection, but that's just me.

This gotta be the worst crap I ever seen. Like someone here already said, RSS is supposed to be fast and light weight. When Microsoft have nothing left to rip off from other developers, they go do things like this.
