We’ve released NetNewsWire 7.2 for Mac with a new column view layout: choose View > Use Column Layout<\/code> to switch.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

I really missed this feature from the old NetNewsWire, so I was happy to see its return. Now that I’m using it, I have mixed feelings. I love the columns, how I can scan the titles without the feed names and dates getting in the way. But some titles aren’t very informative, so I miss how the iOS-style view shows a little preview of the article’s body. I wish I could see that, either appended after the title itself or in a second line below it.<\/p>\n\n
