Across the UniveRSS
MS-Watch | at | by Mike
They say in space, no one can hear you scream. In Microsoft's UniveRSS, feeds are a real screamer.
Last night, colleague Ryan "Security Watch" Naraine forwarded a link to Microsoft's testing, 3D RSS reader. I confess that I hadn't seen this little application. Microsoft's Frank Arrigo blogged about UniveRSS last week.
UniveRSS showcases 3D capabilities of Windows Presentation Foundation. RSS feeds appear as three dimensional cubes, or "feed galaxies," that spin around to reveal contents. The spatially displayed content makes the UniveRSS name quite appropriate. Users can expand the cubes to display feeds and Internet Explorer icon for linking to source content.
