I am currently trying Egress, because I am very interested in the feature: Newsgator synchronized channel.
I am a long time user of Newsgator Online, and now I want to be able to bring my feeds with me in the train thanks to Egress.
My problem, is that my Egress refuses to configure a Newsgator synchronized channel, I have the following error message:
"
To create a synchronized Newsgator channel, you must first create a location named 'Egress' and then add the desired channels from within Newsgator.com
"
I don't understand what this message really means:
- I have created a folder named 'Egress' in Newsgator Online, but the error message is still the same.
- I have created a folder named 'Egress' in Egress, but the error message is still the same.
Can someone who use Egress together with Newsgator, help me. Thanks, Chris
It does work... you need to go to your newsgatro account (via desktop) and go to Settings->Edit locations and at the bottom create a new location....

Thank you Ramel ! that solved my problem.
I discovered that you can Only configure sync for 1 feed each time ! I have many feeds, is it possible to configure in Egress a long list of feeds to sync with Newsgator ?
Or are there any other Pocket PC app able to sync news with an online news Web site ?
There a new version of Newsgator Go right for WM6:
http://www.newsgator.com/Individuals/NewsGatorGo/Default.aspx
You can have your read/unread article sync with any other Newsgator app including Newsgator Online !
Even so we can read in this software features:
"
Offline Reading: Take your feeds and posts/articles with you. You don't have to be online to read your feeds because NewsGator Go! caches downloaded feeds on the device.
"
I can not see the content of the feed enclosure when I am OFFlinne.. I can only see then when I am ONline.
Has someone been able to read feeds with it when OFFline ? if yes, how ?
Chris
Personal Opinion:
Compeltely scrap Newsgator Go, and if you have friends with the same problem, tell THEM to scrap Newgator Go.
Am I being to hard? Read the following post entitled "Content is Blank":
http://forum.newsgator.com/Topic39989-56-1.aspx
At least 13 posts, all with the same problem, all in THEIR OWN FORUM, over a period of two months.
How many responses or possible solutions from Newsgator?
Zero.
Do yourself a favour and go download pRSSreader.
When Newsgator gets its act together, I would be happy to recommend their product.

I agree with you, that's not acceptable from them not to fix this bug.
But I was so keen to use the synchronization feature of read/none read status..

egress can synchronize with newsgator, but it's not free.

As I am very interested in synchronizing the read/not read status of the articles, I am ready to pay for it, no problem.
So Egress, could be a solution, but are you using the synchronized system of Egress with Newsgator ?
I tried Egress, and it seems to me that you have to enter each news that you want to get synchronized by hand !!
I mean, is there a way with Egress to just enter your Newsgator account and then, all your news feeds under that accound get synchronized in terms for read/not read article status ?
With Newsgator Go (for Mobile), you just have to enter your Newsgator login and password and all your feeds are retrieve and get synchronized in terms of read/not read status.

Have you tried Newsbreak?? I think it's the best rss/pod client for wm, even better than Egress imo...

yes it's possible, it's been some time I tried it, but it certainly worked without having to put them one by one. You first need to make a group called egress within newsgator (using the website). then you can import a opml and get the option to use a newsgator opml...play with some options and it will work
a rss tool without synchronisation is useless in my opinion! i reed rss on my laptop, on my work and on my mobile...i never want to reed the same story twice ofcourse, so i can't do without synchronization.

Thanks for you comment, I have just tested it as you said, and it works in synchronized mode !!
Before I thought that only the channel entered as 'Synchronized channel', were sync, but in fact they are all synchronized if you specify your Newsgator OPML and create an egress entry on the Web interface !
The only drawback, is that the FOLDERS organization of your feeds are NOT kept at all. Your Newsgator Online folders are not automatically recreated on your device.
That's a pity, because Egress do support folders (and even nested folders). Newsgator Go, for example is able to keep the folders like on Newsgator Online (I have tested this).
sync with google gears for mobile?
Maybe someone with some good programming skills can create a syncable feed reader using google gears for mobile?
Hi
Does anyone know an easy way to sync google reader with rss hub on activesync?
thanks
anyone manage this? i want to do this too as i experience freezing on rsshub when any feed has pictures in it so want to see if i get any better performance using google.
Go to settings and export to opml, then import.
ah fantastic. i didnt see that !!! ace thanks
Hello,
I had this problem too and i managed to solve it using OPML export from Google Reader, but I'ts not a good behavior for me because, when I use google reader from the PC and I read some feeds, I have to synch my Diamond and mark those feeds "as read" manually (if you subscribe more than 15 feeds this operation is not much confortable).
I would like to see the "new items" list as I see it in Google reader, all in one feed; a sort of "Feed of Feeds".
I use firefox and I noticed that I can submit the atom feed for my own google reader homepage.
This feed's URL is something like:
"http://www.google.com/reader/atom/user%2F[MyUserId]%2Fstate%2Fcom.google%2Freading-list"
I think this could be the right way to solve my problem but obviously google reader asks for username and password when I try to visit this URL from the PDA's browser (opera mobile).
I saw some sort of option for RSS Hub that can handle username and password for feeds, but probably It's not intended for this use...
Take a look at viigo for a newsreader. It works really well and has some really good features.
It syncs with Google Reader..
thank you very much ... i've installed viigo and is very good with google reader sync.

What I did was create a Google account, set up igoogle with a bookmark widget, put all my favourites in there, and then make igoogle my home page. Bingo! All my favourites are there on any PC I use and whatever browser I use on my phone. Works a treat! And no need to sync!
How can you export your bookmarks in Firefox to Leo?
Someone plz help....
ok i need this solution too...i am using some fox sync in desctop!?!
i just made a backup of firefox bookmarks and copied that html on my leo, from there i just open it with opera and open links in new tab or whatever...as a 1st solution.
