You gotta check this cool free tool out! It’s called the Web Forum Reader – A unique internet forums reading software. The basic idea is for you to be able to read web forums in a similar way to how you read your RSS Feeds for blogs. Being that there are still so many helpful forums out there, this tool could be very beneficial for you and save you tons of time. Here is the explanation of the software:

“Web Forum Reader is uniquely designed for reading Internet forums and conferences. You can easily add your favorite forums to Web Forum Reader to stay informed about updates and changes on these forums without loading them in your browser. Web Forum Reader saves you time by showing new and updated topics while hiding topics you have already read. Web Forum Reader will also reduce the amount of data you download compared to regular reading using a browser. Use Web Forum Reader’s handy Resource Addition Wizard to add Internet forums and conferences.”

Here are the main features of the tool:

• Convenience: Mark new topics, recently updated topics, and topics that you have already read.
• Flexibility: Add various types of forums and Internet conferences.
• Precision: The built-in browser automatically scrolls the page to the position where new posts were added to the topic.
• Scheduling:
  The Scheduler feature will always keep you informed about changes in
  the forums you are interested in. Web Forum Reader will notify you
  about new and updated topics in forums as soon as they appear.
• Favorites: Mark your most interesting forum topics as your favorites. Be alerted to new posts in these topics first.
• Organization: See new and updated topics on all forums at once in one list.
• Efficiency: Reduce data downloads and save on bandwidth costs.
• Time savings: Show only new and updated topics while monitoring multiple forums.
• Ease of use: Join several similar forums into groups. Synchronize grouped forums with a single click.
• Multitasking: Use tabs to work with several forums simultaneously.

This can be a very helpful tool that will enhance your web learning. I personally subscribe to over 200 blogs because of the ease of use for getting only new information via RSS. But if this tool works the way it says it does, I can now benefit from some of the highly informational web forums out there like webmasterworld.com. Go download Web Forum Reader and try it out. It’s totally free.
