This is how it works:

• NewsRack syncs with Google Reader
• Organize numerous RSS-feeds in different categories
• Change order, sync-cycle and number of stored articles
• Mark favourites
• Share articles with Twitter, Facebook etc.
• Download articles for offline-reading

What I like about NewsRack:

• browsing big RSS-Headlines in a newsstand-design
• very easy to handle
• variety of options in the settings menu

What I don’t like about NewsRack:

• minor bugs (still!) like retyping your google password
• quite pricy

NewsRack was formally known as NewsStand, had to change its name due to copyright reasons.
