Bloglines Sidebar Gadget

For Windows Vista.

Track your bloglines feed from the sidebar. The Bloglines gadget shows your feeds, highlighting those with unread items. Clicking a feed opens a flyout window with the unread items - from there the blog can be opened in Explorer.

The Bloglines gadget updates the status of your feeds on the Bloglines site, so it can be used in conjunction with the Bloglines web page.

Favorizer

Favorizer exports Internet Explorer favorites to an HTML file. Your favorites are organized and ordered just like you see them in IE. Favorizer can even download the icons for your favorites.

Once you've created an HTML file, you can:

  • Open it in other browsers, like Netscape or Firefox
  • Bring it with you, on a memory stick
  • Host it on a website

Advanced users can generate any desired output format or file type, by creating output templates.

There are any number of other programs out there that perform functions similar to those in Favorizer. The main thing that sets this one apart is the ability to sort bookmarks as you see them in your favorites pane, or menu. By default, these are in alphabetical order, but many people - like me, for instance - like to rearrange favorites in categories, or with most-used items at the top. If a program is going to export these, it aught to do it in the right order! Of course, if your bookmarks are just in alphabetical order, Favorizer can handle that as well.

Favorizer is totally free to use and distribute.
