Import your Viigo Subscriptions into BlackBerry News Feeds App
I’m glad to see that RIM didn’t forget about Viigo, the RSS news app they purchased back a year or so ago. Earlier today, RIM launched their BlackBerry News Feeds App for BlackBerry, which brings all of your RSS feeds into one app, instead of Social Feeds. I was sad to see they didn’t have [...]
