Awasu is a state-of-the-art feed reader that comes loaded with features for both casual personal use and professional, high-powered information management.

Features:
* Monitors any site that provides an RSS or Atom feed.
There are millions of channels available on the Internet, including all the major news sites and weblogs, and the number is growing daily. Awasu can also monitor sites and other data sources even if a feed is not available!
* Notification balloon Lets you know when new content is found.
You can customize each channel to show a notification balloon, play a sound or animate the system tray icon. Or all three!
* Keeps track of what you have already read so you don't waste time looking at things more than once.
* Automatically removes ads and other unwanted content from your feeds before showing it.
* Lets you read linked-to articles and shows images embedded in feeds even when you're not online.
These are downloaded and archived in the background so that they are available even when you are not connected to the Internet.
* Lets you keep Awasu synchronized with not only other copies of Awasu but other feed readers as well.
Supported third-party feed readers include Google Reader, Bloglines and Gregarius. Others will be added as they make their services available.

* Each channel can be individually customized.
* Automatically detects new feeds as you browse.
