Day 5 - RSS Alerter
**** Massive multiple browser tabs bug fixed. My apologies, it won't happen again.
Enjoy seeing RSS feeds notified to your systray via balloons. Use this for daily news feeds when you don't want them in a reader, you just want to see them in realtime. If you miss them, you miss them. Like a stock ticker.
Download the app here
Download the source here
The application resides in your systray. It's a little Jedi icon! Right click and choose feeds to maintain the feeds you subscribe to. Keep in mind, this is practically useless for "cold" feeds. It's really only good for the "hot" feeds. Don't complain to me that you missed you Mother's pictures of Europe because you were away from your PC for 20 seconds when she blogged.
Alive and strong. Join in tomorrow to influence my next app decision. This was decided LAST minute.

I would like to thank you for your efforts.
I have couple of applications that I don't see anywhere so far.
1. a small, command line executable file that can move directories in Windows, similar to mv in UNIX and Linux.
Not even the ports from Linux are working reliably.
It would be great to have when used in batch scripts.
2. A Simple RSS reader, capable of filtering subject line or body text against words, and removing duplicates.
Almost all of the RSS/Atom readers don't have such a think.
Once again, thank you for your efforts.
Oh wow, awesome work, this will be great.
And thanks again for this whole damn project!
this app is 5 minutes late! unacceptable!
jk :P awesome job.
your talented. I hope you only improve
Bug fixed with multiple pops
I was just coming here to report that error, thanks for fixing it! :D

And what is wrong with windows' built in move dos command? type move /? at the command line to get help.. if you move something on the same drive, it is also instantaneous... it can move files and directories equally well.

Are you aware thatDOS move doesn't move folders, only renames them under the same parent folder?
It only moves files, and it doesn't move folders.
It seems that you need to do some research before posting.
This app rocks. Thanks. :)
I am looking for a RSS to HTML convertor. Do u know where I can get one?
I've been looking for something like this for too long! I just can't get used to any other feed reader out there. I love this, but I would really like a list of "read" feeds available as an item on the context menu too. If I'm away from the PC for a while (like a couple of hours or so), I'd like to see what I missed. It would be nice.
Thanks much, this is useful and well done.
I agree with aalaap, but this is a great start, thanks!
I'm getting an error that I don't understand. I can add my rss file as a feed, but a bubble pops up that says:
AnAppADay.com RSS Alerter Error
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: key
Am I missing a tag somewhere?
Simple but very good job!
If your RSSAlerter can have config file to control time parameters is perfect.
Thank you! I have modify the app. base on your code, it works perfect now.
1. I change to record title instead of date to dictionary.
2. Insert thread sleep.
