NNW Unread Menu

I like NetNewsWire, so it stands to reason that I'll like any software that extends NNW and that's just what NNW Unread Menu does.

More specifically it displays a menu item with your unread items count, and if you click on the menu item you get a menu with the blog name and the number of unread posts.

That's pretty cool, but the best feature is that the application supports Growl. Each new post will spawn a Growl notification, which isn't a problem if you subscribe to a normal amount of blogs but if you're like me and have something like 700 subscriptions it can take awhile for each item to pop up.

NNW Unread Menu is Universal and freeware.
