NewsMonster (Oct 21 2003 23:25 GMT) - Based on Technorati's recommendation, I downloaded and installed NewsMonster Free; however, I do not really like it.I like the user interface and that it integrates well with Mozilla but its integration is one of the reasons why I will be changing news aggregrators.For instance, I am not sure what to do now that Mozilla 1.5 is out. |

I had heard rumors a LONG time ago that Jet Li was wanted as well, but turned it down. Instead, they got stuck with a guy that, really, has done some crappy movies. |
