Sharpreader is a type of software that collects content, like news stories or musicals about singing cats, and have the files available in one place. It is also used to check feeds and updating web resources. Sharpreader also detects and shows connections between items if they have the same link, or if there's any sort of relation between the two. The Atom format within the Sharpreader was developed as an alternative to RSS, and it is believed that the RSS had limitations and flaws. There's also another type of aggregator called content aggregator, which combines info such as news, sports, scores, local weather, from various sites and makes it easily attainable to its customers. Software developer, Luke Hutteman, wanted to make sure that the internet had a safer transition for people who are used to using Internet Explorer, or any other outdated search engine to enjoy the internet and work safely from home.

SharpReader is a useful and feature-rich RSS aggregator for Windows. With performance and flexibility in mind, the software strikes a perfect balance between utility and comfort. Another useful feature is the keyboard navigation that allows users to move between entries. As somebody who uses software such as vim, this is a huge plus, and makes the experience significantly more enjoyable.

A product of Luke Hutteman,Sharp-reader for windows is a software program that allows users to receive news through a RSS protocol. It is a freeware product and therefore the user does not need to subscribe to have access to the unlimited functions.IT basically fill the gap of automating the functions and has feed settings such as refresh-rate let alone a purge timeout which can be set per feed and or per category.The user can also take its advantage in importing and exporting his/her subscriptions using OPML.

Very dull website, It could use a little refresh according to the newer designs. No body use rss feeds now a days, everyone uses mobile podcasts or subscriptions but worked fine with an old rss feed. No push notifications for the new updates. That's maddening. Very messy and confusing software.  Can easily use a different font and design which will make reading a little bit more pleasing.
