*Important* The time between password requests are absolutely controlled by AOL, and I don't have any way to extend it. It is usually 14 days long.
AOL Reader is a nicely designed and easy-to-use RSS aggregator. This extension is an unofficial application that periodically checks the users unread items, and shows this number in the extension icon area.
AOL is using AOL OAuth to identify the user, and the extension only stores a token on the client side that allows it to access the Reader. This token can only be used for accessing Reader though, and no other AOL services. For security reasons the user is required to re-log every time when the token expires (about once in a fortnight)

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
