Times Reader 0.1.0.3 released
The Microsoft / NYTimes combo have released an upgrade of their Times Reader software that addresses some issues that users experienced in conjunction with Norton Internet Security. In addition, the new version 0.1.0.3 adds manual proxy settings, future auto-updates, "better" ad interaction, and some minor tweaks to broken visuals.
If you haven't seen the Times Reader in action yet, check out these screenshots I made of an earlier beta. [via jkOnTheRun] |

From the FAQ's:
Hasn't this been done before by companies like Newsstand and Zinio? The technology in Times Reader is unique and distinct from previous news experiences in that it uses Microsoft's new presentation platform (WPF) to delivery highly readable text that is formatted perfectly to fit any size screen. There are no scrollbars, no panning and zooming, for example. And the news is not static - it is continuously updated via a feed from NYTimes.com. |
