From the developer:

NewsBee is a minimalist RSS feed reader for Mac OSX. It lives in your status bar and checks for news once an hour. NewsBee supports multiple sites and keeps track of the items you click. NewsBee is not designed to replace your main RSS feed reader. Rather, NewsBee is there to keep you in-touch with what’s happening without distraction.
