Source Linux console RSS reader Snownews

One of the many ways I read news is via RSS feeds. If you don’t know, RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. What an RSS reader does is collect summaries of news feeds from your favorite sites and places them in a simple, easy to read format. Most RSS readers are graphical applications such as Sage for Firefox, Straw for the GNOME desktop, or Akregator for the KDE desktop. But did you know there is a console-based RSS reader? There is and it’s called Snownews.
You may think the console isn’t a good place for RSS feeds, but it is. Using Snownews is fast, reliable, easy to use, and has a tiny footprint.
