The very-excellent FeedDemon RSS desktop software from NewsGator has gone from $30 to free. I find Google Reader to be a great RSS reader but when I need to really dig in and catch news items as soon as they’re published, nothing beats a good standalone client like FeedDemon.

NewsGator has also decided to give away its Mac client NewsNetWire, its mobile client NewsGator Go!, and its Outlook plugin NewsGator Inbox and will focus its money-making strategies on its enterprise software.
