Snapfiles - download site
Snapfiles is now carrying BlogBridge 2.13, and has given it a great 5 star Rating! Here is the text of the review:
“BlogBridge is a Java based RSS reader than finds blog items based on keyword input and category topic. You can also subscribe to any RSS feed by adding the URL to the list. The program offers an attractive and easy-to-use interface with personal star ratings, weekly status display and collapsible article headlines.
It includes some unique features like the option to generate a SmartFeed based on specific keywords, which can be aggregated from your own feeds or various online resources. BlogBridge supports feed specific display settings and themes, feed collections (guides), OPML import, as well as custom feed tags, which can optionally be shared with others.
The program also integrates with an optional online service that lets you access your feeds from any browser over the Internet. The current version does not support HTTP authentication, but offers just about anything else you could ask for.” (from “Snapfiles review of BlogBridge“)
And by the way, BlogBridge does support authenticated blog feeds just fine, so I am not sure what the issue mentioned in the review is.
Suffice it to say, it’s a very positive notice.
Thanks Snapfiles!

I’m delighted that BlogBridge supports authenticated blog feeds, but I couldn’t find anything in the forum or FAQ’s that told me how to enter a user and password for an authenticated feed that I have subscribed to. Where is that documented?
Thanks!

BlogBridge will automatically ask you for a user name and password when you subscribe to a secured feed. It then also remembers the password for future sessions. The password is not synched to the service though. If this doesn’t seem to be working, please follow up on the support forum: http://www.blogbridge.com/forum.
