Should be able to sync EventBox between computers.
I have a work computer and a home computer, I like to keep my stuff in sync. Google Reader provided that for my 50+ feeds. I think it'd be great if the various feed status (read/unread) would be kept online and EventBox could fetch that and then I wouldn't have to come home to an EventBox filled with already read items.

Inappropriate?This is quite a major feature and is non-trivial to implement. I've filed a request for syncing for post 1.0 releases (maybe 1.x or 2.0).1 Comment

Agreed. Just a suggestion :) I did feel "I'm demanding" while posting it ;) But I'm just as delighted that you actually answered. -
Inappropriate?Jerome,
Keep in mind that you can export your feeds list to make sure both of your EventBox's have the same feed list they are pulling from.

True, at the moment I first posted this, Google Reader wasn't supported, but now it is and the problem has vanished. EventBox is the best.

Inappropriate?For RSS/Atom, I use Google Reader to host all the feeds I follow. So, I don't put any native "RSS/Atom Feeds" in EventBox--I just use it as a viewer -- and all the state of what I have read, what I am reading, etc. is in Google Reader.
This allows me to have multiple computers/devices reading the feeds from google reader and syncing-state. On iPhone I use byline to read the feeds -- on my Mac I use EventBox. If I read something on EventBox....when I look at my byline on my iPhone, it is already in a 'read' state. Works well...
The only way for EventBox to offer such a feature natively (IMO), would be to host some similar service in the network to GoogleReader...not sure that would make sense... -
Inappropriate?I use NetNewsWire's sync through NewsGator to coordinate reading between several machines, and it's massively handy... another vote for some kind of read/unread sync from here!
I’m hopeful
