FeedTicker is a simple RSS news reader that scrolls entries across your desktop like tickertape. It's great for news feeds that are constantly updated. It will make your Macintosh into a dead-sexy information nexus or realize your dreams of turning your monitor into CNN Headline News. Features: Polls news feeds every half hour and scrolls the news across your screen whenever there is a change. Alternatively you can set FeedTicker to loop the entries so you have a constant supply of news. A click on a news entry will open the link in your default browser. A set of entries can be prefaced with a Title entry labeling the group. Clicking on the title will bring up the site the feed is from. Can be positioned anywhere on the screen by dragging the "tape". Can be configured to run floating on top of all of your windows or under your icons on the desktop. Fonts as well as background and foreground colors are all configurable. It does transparency too! Tickertape sound effects when new entries are introduced. Scrolling speed is configurable. Will run when your computer starts if it was running when it shut down. All configuration is done through a preference pane in real time; no need to restart the FeedTicker. Platforms: Mac OS X , Macintosh System requirements: Macintosh OS X 10.3 (Panther) Price: $7.00
