Thank you
Very useful (didn't test it yet)
recommend feed reader
I used for about 1 year feedreader in portable version and are happy with it (you can sort your feeds, you can note the most important feed with a star, contains an internal search to find feed and there's a version for use with MySQL - for Web developers)

find more details on that site.
Load From File???
Hi Guys
I currently use Brief in FF, but I have quite a few feeds and am looking for a portable alternative. I can't see how I can load all my feeds from FF (presumeably exported) to Feed Notifier Portable.
Any ideas??? (On using FNP or anything else (portable) to manage my feeds which will either access FF or load from an exported file).
Thnx
You Can't
Feed Notifier does not support importing or exporting, so I don't think you can. Maybe through an OPML file in the directory or similar, but I'm unsure offhand. Drop a note in the support forums to discuss that further. If you'd like the importing feature, you can contact the main Feed Notifier developers.
dat
It saves the feeds as a dat file
EDIT:
But OPML import/export is planned.
add portableapps.com feed
Maybe in a next version you could add the standard portableapps.com feed and more importantly disable the update check via DefaultData?
