It's a challenge to keep up in the Information Age. With countless quality sites and blogs, it's far too easy to spend a crazy amount of time just trying to stay up to date. Thankfully, news feeds (aka RSS) and news feed readers make the stream of information easier to swallow. Karoro is a "swift" reader - great looking, straightforward, and designed for usability.
Karoro, weighing in at a puny 200 KB, addresses the age-old screen vs. paper problem of readability head on. Feeds are presented in an attractive typeface (custom CSS theme support appears to be on the horizon), in a river-of-news "accordion" display layout. Reading should be enjoyable, online or not, and Karoro strives for just that.
If you proceed to an article, you can choose to open the link in your custom browser, or use the integrated (IE) browser which opens in Karoro's frame - which comes in handy if you do a lot of back and forth.
And that's pretty much all there is to it, for now. Karoro is a young app, still in the "preview" phase, but off to a very promising start.
If you follow dozens or (god forbid) hundreds of feeds, Karoro isn't for you just yet; stick with RSSOwl or Feedreader for more flexibility. And for online feed readers, it's pretty tough to beat Feedly.
