Announcing: Newsgator for Windows Media Center.

NewsGator Technologies launched NewsGator Media Center Edition today, which allows users to read syndicated content feeds on their TV with Windows XP Media Center Edition. Both text and multimedia content is supported, with an interface designed to be used with a remote control from across the room. NewsGator Media Center Edition shows information that has not already been viewed on another device by synchronizing user subscriptions with NewsGator Online Services.

I got hooked up with the beta for this but was not able to find the time to try it out until today (well Monday). My first impression is that this is very slick. I can’t wait to get my slick TV and really try this out.

If it wasn’t past midnight I’m sure I could go verify this.. But does it support downloading enclosures? If so, it’d be great if it would download the enclosures in my feeds and then put the downloaded multimedia into My Videos so that I could watch them easily.

(See Paul, this is an example of our rich third party bleh bleh bleh :).)
