The last thing us Mac users need is another RSS reader to enter the market, though some may argue variety is good. Cyndicate describes itself as an “easy-to-use, next generation, RSS/Atom syndication feed reader.” From my initial impression of the app, I find it is a slightly more advanced version… Continue Reading »
