Google Reader is a really handy service for consuming your reports feeds, but it lives in the browser, that means it doesn't the responsiveness and polish of a desktop app. For all those Mac users out there searching for the better of two worlds, I present to you Gruml, a new desktop Google Reader application.
What's great about Gruml is that it brings lots of the features in Google Reader that we've come to understand and love and brings them into the desktop programme, including features like starring, liking, and sharing posts (with notes and tags), and reading announcements that chums share with you. And for those Twitterholics out there who have to tweet their reports, Gruml incorporates Twitter support, permitting you to tweet articles (converted to short URLs) straight from the app. It is important to notice that Gruml is still in beta, and has its faults, like running slowly on start up, and missing some settings in the preferences menu. But generally, it is a great application that runs well and shows guarantee.
