NewsBlur is a personal news reader that learns your taste, so the feeds you follow stop shouting over each other and the stories you actually want rise to the top. The intelligence trainer scores every story by the authors, tags, and titles you thumbs-up or down, then highlights the matches and hides the noise across a site, a folder, or everything at once. Read in four modes without leaving the reader: the raw feed, a cleaned text view, the original page in place, or a story view for long reads. Folders collect related sites, and the River of News pours a whole folder into one scrolling stream for a morning catch-up. Sharing is built in rather than bolted on: your blurblog republishes the stories you pick, friends follow and comment on them, and privacy controls decide who sees what. Saved stories take tags and become searchable, saved searches turn into feeds of their own, and full-text search digs through every subscription. Email newsletters arrive as feeds, YouTube channels can be followed without RSS, and IFTTT or Zapier connections push stories into the rest of your tools.
