Synchronization with no hassle and real privacy

To get synchronization working, you just need to enter the username and password on each computer, and Shrook does the rest. Synchronization happens every five minutes while you're connected to the internet, meaning you never have to remember, or forget, to do it. None of your data is shared with the public, other users, corporate overlords or marketing droids. shrook.com values your privacy.

Get news without your Mac

Once synchronized you can log in from any web browser, and all of your channels will be there. It has up-to-date information on what you've read, and when you get back to Shrook itself, it'll know what you looked at when you were away.

Free iPhone version

Shrook is also available as a free native iPhone app that stays synchronized with your shrook.com account and your Mac

New items without the wait

With a shrook.com account, new items appear on your desktop just five minutes after they were published, quicker than any other news reader. This is down to Shrook's sophisticated Distributed Checking mechanism. Each time anyone's copy of Shrook finds a new item, it tells the central server, which tells all of the other copies to look for the item, including yours.
