Headliner -- Windows Phone 7 RSS Reader

Headliner is a Windows Phone 7 RSS Reader developed by Microsoft interns Roger Pincombe, Jose Arriaga Maldonado, Aaron Schultz, Chris Cortes.


A few highlights:
• Headliner is an RSS newsreader that helps you keep up to date with your favorite news and blogs
• It can import feeds from and sync with your Google Reader account
• Allows searching for and subscribing to feeds by keyword
• Has a special start screen that guides the user to get started quickly in one of 3 modes
• Stores downloaded feeds and articles on disk for offline viewing
• Showcases a slick Metro UI with the Panorama and Pivot controls
• Shows a "What's New" panel with the latest news
• Allows you to view feeds by category, and articles by category or feed
• Displays unread count for each category and feed, as well as coloring article list items based on if they have been read yet
• Uses familiar styling for article lists (looks like email app) and category/feeds lists (looks like contacts app)
• Has two modes for viewing articles:
1. Summary mode: displays the article summary or content and a supporting image (if found). This is the faster view.
2. Embedded browser mode: displays the source article within an embedded IE control. This view, while slower, can be more complete.

I have been traveling for the past couple months and haven't had a chance to polish this up and release it. I will try to get that done as soon as possible, hopefully within the next couple weeks. Thank you for your patience.

Thank you for all of your comments!

This looks to be an amazing RSS Reader and exactly what I'm looking for on my new phone. Can't wait for it to be released!

How much is this one going to cost? Or is it going to be free for people to use? Either way, job very well done!

Any sign of this being released?

y does the RSS reader not supporting any picture?? while Andriod or iOs's rss apps are mainly use picture as the icon clicking in. But this apps requires entering the website to see any photos or picture. Still, greay apps~
