Once installed,you will see a new icon,which i’ve shown on the screenshot,click on that and you are taken to the login page.This is where you have got to decide what you want on your Start Up page.Feedly will go through your Firefox bookmarks looking for feeds,but can also be set up,to look through various other accounts,including Twitter,Bloglines and FriendFeed.Of course,the more feeds you set up,the more crowded your Start Up page will be,so be a bit cautious and only subscribe to the feeds you use most.

It also integrates with Google Reader,which means that any feeds you add to Feedly will automatically appear in Google Reader also.

You’ve also got 14 categories you can choose from,ranging from Auto,through to Web Development and you can also set a Timeframe,that lets you view feeds from the last 24 hours or from the last 3,5 or 7 days.

It really is a nice little application and works really well,but it is in beta,so the occasional problem might be encountered,but up to now,it has worked perfectly.

    Using it now as my default RSS reader.
    What’s nice about is the way it displays the entries.
