Introducing Gobbler

One of my side projects, Gobbler, made it out of the oven just over a week ago. It’s a web-based RSS reader that offers a Google Reader-compatible API and even more functionality via a REST API to third-party clients.

Gobbler builds on the traditional RSS reader functionality (Feeds, Feed-level management, and Starred articles) with:

  • Lists, for organising articles
  • Annotations, for highlighting text within articles
  • Markdown export, for saving and viewing articles in other applications
  • Newsletter support
  • Custom typography 1

Gobbler has a 14-day free trial and then it’s just $5/month. If you use NetNewsWire, Current, or Reeder (Classic), Gobbler already works! If not, you can use Gobbler in your browser or as an installable Web app on your device.
