Feedster.com unveiled a new website interface and widget combination today. The widget displays search results in an RSS style format.

Here is a quote from Rachel Boltz on the Feedster blog.

“To start with the obvious, the site looks completely different. When comparing the old with the new, it’s quite apparent that we decided to keep only the name from the old design. Everything else we set aside, in favor of our newer, shinier self.

Another obvious change is that our content channels, labeled “Feed Buzz”, now occupy a much more prominent place on our site. Each channel has been built from hand-selected feeds that match the general topic. The criteria for selection were as follows:

1) Frequent updates
2) Widely read
3) Largely and consistently confined to one topic
4) Valuable information

The best part about the channels is that you can now take them with you. In fact, every channel AND search on our site are completely portable with the new Feedster widget.” Here’s the entire blog post from Feedster.

It’s cool because you get a different perspective on whats out there. This is Google Clip without having to physically click the share button.

This is a JavaScript widget. It’s free and very user friendly. Check out the cool widget customization pane. It allows you to custom design your widget with a title, custom background colors and you can size it too!
