Bulletin

Bulletin is an online iPhone application that keeps you up to date on all of your RSS feeds through Google Reader. It comes with offline browsing, plus sharing options for Twitter, Delicious and Facebook.

Users can keep up to date with all their favourite blogs, news websites and social networking pages with the ease of this $1.99 application.

The app, however, does require users to download a Google Reader account, which you can get at google.com/reader.

Bulletin is one of the better-feed readers on the iPhone market and integrates well with the Google software. It allows sharing to multiple services much easier than the Google mobile page.

It also allows offline reading and is one of the few readers that display items shared by people you follow.

One of the few faults of the application is a bug where feeds which are not assigned to folders cause the app to either not sync all items, or report incorrect unread counts.

The bug has apparently been reported to Apple for approval to fix the problem but in the meantime, you can add all feeds to a temporary folder to resolve the issue.

The application shares well with Twitter and works well with most online websites and functions with very few technical difficulties.

Bulletin has been receiving positive reviews in its short time on the market and for just under to dollars, it is an efficient news feed for mobile phone users.
