I am looking for an RSS reader that I can run minimized in my notifications task bar and that will post a notification whenever there is an update to one of the feeds.

The Notifier is a small popup that displays the headlines of incoming news even when RSSOwl is minimized. You can mark news entries as sticky from the Notifier to remember reading the full content of the entry at a later time.

From it's Github page: «RSSOwl is unmaintained and has several known vulnerabilities. Please do not use it any more.» https://github.com/rssowl/RSSOwl There are active forks, though.

rssowl is a resource hog. I'll have to take a look at this. Thanks (+1). – mwolfe02 – 2011-05-09T21:32:33.620
1FWIW, I developed Feed Notifier. Let me know if you have any feedback. – FogleBird – 2011-05-09T23:01:24.233
I just use Google Reader with either browser or Rainmeter plugins for this, but probably not exactly what you're after... – Shinrai – 2011-02-08T17:30:46.857
Yeah, I'm specifically looking for integration with windows notifications. – mwolfe02 – 2011-02-08T17:33:10.147
