Let me guess, you're using webrtc to deliver a screencast of a headless VM to my browser plus JS to capture I/O events and deliver them over a websocket to the server essentially replicating the functionality of a "zero client" using modern web technologies, no?

Would you happen to know any such sites for NGOs?

Eh, tell me about it. That machine, bought brand new, would set you back ~1.6k USD here in Egypt -- the equivalent of a whole year's income for some...

Seriously, someone should start an Ebay for charitable giving.

would be nice if they provided readability as a library or a documented API for third-parties.

Do you think there's still a market for feed readers? I've built one (not public yet) with two somewhat distinct features: 1. you get a river of news with the ability to perform complex search queries against your feeds; and 2. it provides relevance sorting of articles based on your reading history. I've found that search, when accompanied by tagging, provides a reasonable alternative to the folder-based feed management approach while relevance sorting helps cut down the time I have to spend wading through the never-ending stream of articles. Should I consider opening it for the public? I don't want to spend money on hosting and bandwidth unless there's a reasonable chance to recover some of the associated costs.

Any hope they might actually revive Google Reader as part of this redesign frenzy?
