Feedster Unveils New Look, Sponsored Links

Following in the footsteps of fellow RSS player Bloglines, San Francisco-based Feedster will roll out a new version with an ad model next week.

Feedster, which is a search engine that trolls XML feeds, will begin running sponsored keyword-targeted links from Overture with its search results next week, according to Scott Rafer, Feedster’s CEO. The links will appear in the traditional position, on the right-hand side of the search results page. “The links will be clearly labeled as sponsored links,” Rafer said. Feedster’s ads will go live next week.
