Guru News Ticker loads RSS and RDF newsfeeds from news agencies from around the world and displays them as scroll text on your desktop, inside your Windows taskbar or inside Microsoft Internet Explorer. With a click of the mouse, users can open the selected news article in their favorite Web browsers. Users can select an unlimited number of news channels through a channel-subscription wizard. Additionally, the built-in search functionality of the product allows users to monitor eBay auctions as well as create their own custom news channels from Yahoo and Google News sources.
The program has the ability to show a preview of an entire news article in a drop-down window by the user simply hovering the mouse over the scrolling headline of interest. Once the mouse is moved, the article fades out. Other included functions are customization of colors, fonts, the scrolling speed, and the frequency of headline updates. Version 2.0 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
