This isn't really news for anybody that loosely keep track of Mac news, but for redundancy's sake, I'll post my blurb. MacHeist is having their annual "killer" bundle sale.
I'll do reviews of each piece of software as I get to it. I think I have 12-14 new apps so it could take a while...
In any case, I'm having a good time with Times. It's an nice, easy way to read all the RSS feeds I've been accumulating. I think it's going to become even more useful as RSS and social networking are growing hand-in-hand.
I've been using Apple's Mail for my feeds which, while convenient because I'm always in Mail, has a pretty bare bones UI so overall it's probably not a win. I have a feeling that Times is going to actually make the process a little more efficient.
The only thing that irked me out-of-the-box is that I couldn't find an intuitive way to sort my feeds within the same "column". It kept defaulting to some bogus order that wasn't apparent. Maybe it's based on the order of the feeds as they are imported/added? Not sure, but whatever is up, I didn't figure it out in 30 seconds (and yes, I at least checked the Help menu), so I'll probably pester their support or forum when I get a chance.
