FL User Testimonial #24
Scott on FeedLounge: “We are delivering real value to our users today, and will be able to survive as long as the user community believes we are providing value.”
Exactly. I pay for good experience. I use FL on three computers every day [work PC, Mac mini G4, and iBook G4], and my workflow is the same for each machine. I don’t have to think when using FL—I just use the freakin’ product. I can slash-and-burn through a whole lot more feeds with FL than with any other reader I’ve used, and I’ve been (ab)using feed readers for a few years.
I would cry piteously if FL went under. It’s as essential to me as my Internet connection, and it becomes more integral every day.
Geof,
You say:
Have you used client side readers? You can really use FeedLounge to go through items faster? Other people would love to understand how, if that is the case, as they believe nothing can beat the local client experience.

Yeah, I’ve used FeedDemon. It’s fast. It’s good. But FL’s UI is better. I’ve used a couple of the other freebie Windows readers as well.
As far as annoying my hosting company, the problem is that I host myself on a dedicated box that I lease [and sublet and run a lot of crap on]. I’d just be pissing myself off. I do that enough already!
