The Social RSS reader Rojo unveiled a new look last night, announced on the Rojo blog. This is my reader of choice, so it took me by surprise seeing these changes - the look is cleaner with new fonts and icons, but it appears at first glance that some of the functionality has been moved.
- The Explore page is gone - replaced by a Today page (It's not clear what this page is showing - is it Read posts, or Tagged ones, or both?)
- The Tag box is replaced by a link (this extra step may discourage tagging - the prime differentiator for Rojo)
- Favicons are moved down to the expanded item
- Permalinks are tied to the Rojo database, not the original source (they are called Rojolinks)
The Rojo Forums have a thread started to discuss these changes.
