Zen News Reader is an RSS Reader for Windows Phone 7 that was released recently. Zen News Reader has been designed by keeping simplicity and usability in mind which makes it by far the best news reader available for WP7. Here is a demo video

Zen allows your to easily search & subscribe your favorite blogs and feeds through an intuitive interface. It also comes with a predefined list of popular blogs and sites in various categories like movies, business, technology, sports, etc. If you have used Flipboard or Pulse News Reader on other platforms, then am sure you’ll like it.

Features:

• Search feeds
• Subscribe/Unsubscribe to feeds
• Rearrange feeds
• Share on Facebook, Email, SMS

It has an Ad-free Tial version which you can use as long as you want with all the features. Only limitation is that, it is limited to 5 subscriptions max. You can download the app here.

Its been 3 months since I released “GRE Buddy”. GRE Buddy is a very simply to use Android application that helps you prepare for GRE, GMAT & SAT Vocabulary. The response has been really great with over 15000 downloads and counting. GRE Buddy is now listed among “Top Free” applications in the Android Market Place!! Thanks for all the support and feedback.

GRE Buddy is designed mainly for people who are busy and want to improve their English Vocabulary in free time. Hence my primary focus has always been on usability and simplicity. It has a wordlist of over 5000 words to learn from.

Instruction to use:

• Flip through the words to learn
• Click on words to (un)hide meaning
• Star the important words
• Review starred items
• Test your preparedness by playing the newly implemented Quiz Game. This is one of the best ways to trains your mind to recall quickly.

Though this application was initially meant to help SAT/GRE/GMAT aspirants, it can be used for various other exams like GMAT, TOEFL, IELTS, MCAT, ACT, etc. You can even use it to improve your general English Vocabulary. Just carry in your pocket and learn whenever you find time.
