Blogwatcher
A straightforward CLI for keeping tabs on blogs and RSS feeds without the overhead of a full feed reader. You add feeds with a URL, run scan to check for new posts, and get a simple list of unread articles you can mark off as you go through them. It's built in Go and keeps everything local. Good for when you're following a handful of technical blogs or webcomics and want something you can check from the terminal or script into your workflow. The interface is clean enough that you won't need to reference the help after the first time, and it stays out of your way.
