NewsGator Demos Synchronization with Vista & IE7

By Jennifer Smith, March 20, 2006

At the Mix06 Conference in Vegas, Dean Hachamovitch, Microsoft's GM of Internet Explorer, and Greg Reinacker, demonstrated NewsGator synchronizing with IE7 and Windows Vista.  The synchronization capabilities demostrated were:

  • Subscribe to a feed in IE7
  • View that subscription in NewsGator Online
  • Sync and view from FeedDemon
  • View feed list in preview version of NewsGator Windows Mobile Reader

This is important because when Vista and IE7 go to market, that will expose millions and millions of people to RSS within a year or so.  And, once those people catch on to the power of RSS, they will realize that synchronization is the one feature that they can't really live without if they use multiple devices and platforms (PC at work, Mac at home, mobile device on the go etc;)  This synchronization doesn't only apply to our individual end-user products, but will also be very important for enterprises using NewsGator Enterprise Server.
