NetNewsWire 3.0a8
We here at TUAW are unabashed fans of NetNewsWire, the best of class newsreader for the Mac. That much you probably knew already, however, you might not know that NewsGator has just released an Alpha of NewNewsWire 3.0 (which brings us up to 3.0a8). Check out the release notes to get the full run down on what's new in this version. My favorite new additions? Here they are: Send to Twitterific for posting stuff to Twitter (another TUAW favorite) Microformats support (very cool) Performance enhancements (it is fast I tells ya!) Remember this is a piece of Alpha software, and there are bound to be bugs.
NetNewsWire on sale for $19.95
Ranchero is selling NetNewsWire - the most popular newsreader on Mac or Windows (and it isn't even available for Windows!) - for just $19.95 until their long awaited 2.1 update ships, which their blog post says is "within the next few weeks." While this is $5 off regular price, they're also offering $10 off the NetNewsWire/MarsEdit bundle, which will no longer exist once NNW 2.1 ships (MarsEdit will simply sell by itself for $24.95 from now on).Fortunately, there are no special tricks, codes or handshakes you need to remember to pick up these stellar apps at a discount. Simply head on over to Ranchero's store with a credit card ready.
MarsEdit 1.1fc1
I'm as giddy as a school girl. It looks like MarsEdit 1.1 will soon be upon us as a final candidate release has just been announced. I blog a lot and most my time blogging is spent within the confines of MarsEdit, and I have been watching the development of the 1.1 release very closely and I am excited.Here's hoping that they never change the icon, I really like that rocket ship.
MarsEdit 1.1b6 public beta
We knew that development of MarsEdit was continuing, but the good news of the weekend was that 1.1b6 public beta of MarsEdit is now available: "This release updates the French localization and fixes a few bugs, including a work-around for a time zone problem with some weblog systems. (More details are on the beta page.)" Not much really new about it, but cool nonetheless. Get it.
