why does the app needs to be a firefox extension?
Not sure what the reason is but it would be great to be able to use it on Safari 4 too.

Inappropriate?It is completed. In a nutshell it allows us to provide a more seamless and interactive user experience, be more secure because users to have have to share with us their username and password and be more scalable.
Over time, we will be offering a scale down version of feedly that users will be able to access on the go but right now, we are focusing 100% of our energy on making the firefox experience as polished and valuable as possible and we still have work to do!
Sorry for the inconvenience. We understand it is a constraint but we had to draw the line somewhere.3 Comments

Edwin: the current version of Feedly is good enough for most of the users, which I was part of since Day One - until the recent release of Safari 4, which delivers a far better user-experience than Firefox as a whole.
I really think it's time for you to start developing a solution for us the Safari users.
Listen : compared to Feedly, both Google Reader and Netvibes suck overall - design, features set, usability, etc. Trust us: Feedly on Safari would definitely send you to the Top.
Shall you be looking for an alpha/beta tester : I'm yours !

Thanks for the kind words and your on-going support. We are starting to look into Webkit support for the feedly iphone version. As soon as that nut is cracked, we will explore support for Safari (It is not that we do not like Safari - the problem is that it is designed as a monolithic block and makes the work of third party developers much harder).

Maybe you can get around by using fluid.app...? (although I doubt this is going to work as well and reach as many users... but you got greasemonkey like browser and page scripting)

Inappropriate?I hear for a while now that you plan on making an iPhone version for feedly. There are quite a lot feed readers for the iPhone now... most of them with sharing capabilities... what will separate feedly from all the rest? The iphone doesn't have lot of screen estate.... and one of feedly's strength are the way all information is displayed very conveniently in a browser ... but for the iphone it's like a whole other universe...
What will feedly bring to the iPhone that we haven't seen already?
My hope is for experience similar to what iPhone TweetDeck is for Tweets.
I’m confident

Zkaka. Good points. We are still exploring what the iphone experience should be. We will let you know when we have more information.

Inappropriate?Would an Adobe Air based version not work well? Seems to do the trick for the best twitter clients around.1 Comment Add a comment

Rendering sophisticated HTML layout in Air is hard and memory management in Air is not optimal. A few people have been able to run feedly in Prism. Prism and Fluid are better options for us going forward. But thanks for the suggestion!
