FeedDemon to add Google Reader synchronization

The new build with Google Reader support isn't publicly available yet, but developer Nick Bradbury posted a link to a Flickr image of the next version of FeedDemon yesterday. Google Reader integration isn't the only new feature in store for FeedDemon 2.8. The currently available release candidate already includes enhanced support for Twitter feeds.
If you can't wait for FeedDemon 2.8 RC3, you can try RSS Bandit, which already allows users to synchronize their feeds with Google Reader.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

Last I heard they were putting ads in 2.8. Is this still the case?
And thanks for the heads-up about RSS Bandit. I'm definitely looking for an ad-free alternative, and it'll make the move from NewsGator to Google much easier.

I'm running what is, as far as I can tell, the latest public FeedDemon and yes, there's one ad in the bottom left corner.
It's still a nice piece of software, though, and I'll continue to use it; if one ad that doesn't take up too much space gets them some money from someone who isn't me, so be it.

i'm still looking for a good mobile rss reader for WinMo or BB, similar to opera mini that can sync with google reader.
so far all the readers i've seen are too cumbersome to use. constantly have to close current article and open another one...opera mini's display all articles fully expanded in one big list so i just have to scroll down. it's also good because it downloads the whole feed, so i can continue reading when train goes underground.

From what I've seen the 2.8 beta, yes.
There are ad's, but not too many, and it's not that bad.
It's bearable.

The advert was going to be the last straw, I was planning to migrate all my feeds to some other platform... and then they finally have the common sense to add greader syncing. I guess i'll have to stick with it. Now if only they would sort out the bugs in the program and stop it being such a resource hog we might finally have a worthy rss reader.
