Taskable

Taskable - Always-on RSS and OPML menus for the Windows taskbar Taskable is a new kind of RSS and OPML browser built into the Windows taskbar notification area. Clicking on the "little orange guy" (have a better icon? We kind of like his XML-orange-ness) provides always-on, instantaneous access to your favorite feeds from simple menus that can be traversed with the keyboard or the mouse.

When you install Taskable, you\'ll get a few default feeds set up for you. Check those out, then use the "Settings" dialog to add your own --- any RSS, OPML or Atom feed should work. Taskable really shines with OPML inclusion*, which opens up some fantastic possibilities. Check out the "All Stores" area under Shopping / Amazon.com to see a neat example.

To quickly add a feed from any web page that has one, just drag the icon from your browser address bar onto the "Settings" dialog. We\'ll look into the page and figure out if there\'s an associated feed. You also get super-quick access to Google search. Choose "Search" from the Taskable menu or just hit Alt-1 to bring up a Google dialog, and you\'re off to the races.
