iXolr is an off-line reader for CIX Conferencing, one of the first social networking systems. Popular in the UK in the 1990s, CIX is now a quiet backwater on the net.

An off-line reader is like an email client, allowing you to grab the latest messages in a quick burst, then read them off-line at your leisure. It optimises your bandwidth usage, gives you a user experience tailored to the iPad, and lets you work in places where you don’t have a network connection.

You must have a CIX account in order to use iXolr.

Features include:
* Download and read messages, organised by topic and conference
* Threaded message display
* Create new messages and upload them to CIX
* Search messages within a topic
* OAuth security, so you control your password and access
* View and search the directory of all CIX conferences.
