14.2 Reading a Newsfeed

Liferea comes preconfigured to receive newsfeeds from Novell® Cool Solutions™ and Novell Technical Information. To read one of these example feeds:

  1. Start Liferea as described in Section 14.1, Starting Liferea.

  2. In the Feed List, click the subscription you want to read.

    For example, click Example Feeds > Novell > Novell Cool Solutions.

  3. Click a headline in the Item List.

    Unread headlines appear in bold text. When you click a headline, the selected item opens for reading in the View pane.

Unlike many news aggregators, Liferea lets you read news even if you are offline. After headlines are fed to Liferea, you can read the items, whether you are online or not. You must be online, however, to update your newsfeeds with the latest headlines.
