I give you that the installation process could be simpler, if it were possible. I should have worded to clarify that the installation process, when compared with any other software that is installed on a webserver, is magnitudes easier – especially the automated updates feature.

However, this still is not for the average user. First off, it requires the user to have a web server space (although with even more technical knowledge you could install the software locally on your Mac and use it through a browser, but you wouldn’t be able to easily use it with any other devices, such as your iPad when you’re away from home) and to configure a database.

Ideally, Shaun would offer a hosted subscription solution for those that do not have server space or don’t want to bother – I’d pay $4.99/mo for something like this if I did not already have a server just idling

“Installation couldn’t be simpler” …???

Sorry but you lose me at creating a database on a server!! I wouldn’t even know were to start!!

It doesn’t sound simpler than clicking a link and installing a app. To bad this seem like a really interesting rss reader.
