The mission is simple:

To create a simple piece of RSS software which is
  • Simple. It should get out of the way and be almost invisible.
  • Does not rely on online reader sites like Google
  • Starts and runs almost instantly
  • Allows importing feeds from OPML files
  • Has separate views for individual feeds or all unread items
  • Ability to share/post items to popular tools like Digg, Delicious, Twitter, Facebook, Evernote, Windows Live etc.
  • Installs in seconds with one-click deploy
  • Ideally written in WPF (my first draft is only a bog standard forms app)

It should not be:
  • Sluggish or unresponsive
  • Hard to extend
  • Hard to use
  • Slow to install/start
  • Full of bells-and-whistles. Only the basics of subscribe, read and share with as little chrome as possible.
