Can I use Ziepod as a news aggregator?
Ziepod can be considered as a news aggregators since it can process RSS and ATOM feeds. However, in general, news aggregators provide more functionality to maintain retrieved content. This is mostly because you subscribe to more feeds(about 100 or higher) and news feeds generaly publish more posts a day. News aggregators are crafted for such high load. In truth, Ziepod is not originally designed to be a news aggregator. Since the number of podcasts and their publication load is not as high as news feeds, Ziepod can handle podcasts very well. Nevertheless, you can still use Ziepod for news feeds, unless you subscribe to over 200 feeds or so. Otherwise you may feel lost while maintaining that much post load.
