Read Blogs Without Leaving Visual Studio

Jon, the creator of SharpTools, sent me mail to let me know about his latest creation... a plugin that lets you read blogs indide the Visual Studio IDE.  I've gave it a shot and I have to say that it looks pretty cool.  

From the site.

This open source plugin ships as part of SharpTools 2.0 and is a full-featured RSS / Blog aggregator which integrates into the familiar dockable panes of the Visual Studio.NET IDE. You're gonna love it when you start blogging from within the development environment! Features include:

  • Support for folders or individual feeds
  • Drag-and-drop support for feeds and folders
  • Preview a new feed as you add it
  • Easy control of all feed properties
  • Automatic and on-demand refresh of feeds
  • Automatic feed search based on a site URL
  • Keyword searching for published feedsusing Synic8
  • Keyword search within all subscribed feeds
  • Import of feed subscriptions from an OPML file
