I just tried to open Sauce Reader, my blog reader of choice, but all it gave me was an error and an option to close. After digging through the error message, I found the message, “Class not registered”.
Ok, easy enough. I opened a command prompt and started to register each dll in the Sauce Reader directory. But wait, it wouldn’t let me run Registration Server. I tried:
- regsrv
- regsrv32
- regsrv32
- regsvr
- regsvr32 (bingo)
I mean, that was pretty lame. In my defense, I seriously think the first season of The OC I was forced to sit through ejected this out of my head.

So, I finally found a great replacement for Newsgator. Truth is, I found nothing. I just follow several months behind Tim Haines. First I moved to Sauce Reader because of Tim's Post Here, then when I mentioned my problems with it, he let me know about another one. Thanks Tim!
Anyway, although long overdue, I have been using Omea Reader from Jet Brains (same guys who make Resharper), for over a month. I have no doubts it is the best tool out there, and I have tried them all: Feed Demon, Sauce, SharpReader, RssBandit, Bloglines, Newsgator, and several others that aren't worth remembering.

I have been looking for a possible replacement for Newsgator because my Outlook is starting to get a bit crowded and will sometimes go into endless restarts.
My biggest feature request is the ability to view all the items in one browser interface like Newsgator or Bloglines. I want to be able to have a folder containing 10 feeds, and when I click on that parent folder I want to view all my feeds in one page. You get the idea.
