Google Reader is a very useful service for consuming your news feeds (assuming you\u00a0still use<\/a> RSS), but it lives in the browser, which means it doesn\u2019t the responsiveness and polish of a desktop app. For all those Mac users out there looking for the best of both worlds, I present to you\u00a0Gruml<\/a>, a new desktop Google Reader application.<\/p>\n

Gruml is a lightweight application that sits in your dock and menu bar, and gives you all of your RSS goodness. What\u2019s great about Gruml is that it brings a lot of the features in Google Reader that we\u2019ve come to know and love and brings them into the desktop client, including features like starring, \u201cliking,\u201d and sharing posts (with notes and tags), and reading headlines that friends share with you.<\/p>\n

And for those Twitterholics out there who need to tweet their news, Gruml comes with Twitter support, allowing you to tweet articles (converted to short URLs) directly from the app.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to note that Gruml is still in beta, and has its faults, like running slowly on startup, and missing some settings in the preferences menu. But overall, it\u2019s a great application that runs well and shows promise.<\/p>\n
