Liferea distinguishes itself from other Unix feed readers by avoiding lots of package dependencies. It is written in [[C (programming language)|C]] and uses no [[interpreted language|interpreter language]].

To easily read linked articles or weblog comments Liferea allows to read websites using an embedded browser, which can be either Mozilla/Firefox/XulRunner or GtkHTML. Additionally the user can configure many predefined [[web browser|external browsers]] to open links with (e.g. Mozilla, Firefox, Netscape, Opera, Epiphany, Konqueror).

By sorting subscriptions into folders the user can read all headlines of a folder at once. By enabling a filtering preference all previously read headlines of the folder can be hidden.

Similar to the mail client Evolution Liferea support search folders, which allow the user to have permanent searches. Each search folder contains all headlines that do match its user-defined search rules.

== Browser Integration ==

In [[Epiphany (browser)|Epiphany]] there is a news feed subscription extension, which allows to add news feeds when viewing websites.

For [[Firefox]] 1.5+ there is an extension ([http://liferea.sf.net/feedbag FeedBag]), that allows to add subscriptions by simple clicking the LiveBookmarks icons in the Firefox address bar.

Since [[Firefox]] 2.0+ Liferea can be used without a special extension. To subscribe new feeds from within Firefox the Liferea helper script "liferea-add-feed" has to be configured in the Firefox feed subscription preferences.

Revision as of 14:17, 11 October 2008

David J E Callaway is a biological nanophysicist in the New York University School of Medicine. He is Professor and Laboratory Director. Trained as a theoretical physicist by Richard Feynman and Cosmas Zachos, he has published papers on a variety of topics, including black holes, superconductors, and protein chemistry. A particular recent focus of Dr. Callaway's laboratory is Alzheimer's disease. His research has led to the development and patenting of promising new therapeutics. Dr. Callaway has also initiated the study of protein domain dynamics by neutron spin echo spectroscopy, providing a way to observe protein nanomachines in motion.

Previous work by David Callaway includes the invention of the microcanonical ensemble approach to lattice gauge theory with Aneesur Rahman, work on the convexity of the effective potential of quantum field theory, work on Langevin dynamics with John R. Klauder, and a monograph asking the question whether an elementary scalar Higgs boson can exist.

He is an avid expedition mountaineer and polar explorer.
