I’ve been thinking about the user interaction of subscribing to feeds and how, and at which point, to identify that a particular feed belongs to a particular person when you already subscribe to another feed coming from that person (i.e. subscribing to their delicious feed when you’re already subscribed to their blog). I’d been trying to think of an easy way of typing in, or selecting th...

I’m currently highly distressed – it turns out that the latest version of FeedReader is really good (that is to say, it’s not a Java or .Net app and so actually runs at an acceptable speed on my 2GHz, 1GB RAM machine), which means the yawning pit of infovorism has opened before me once again. Maybe this time I could keep it to under three hundred feeds? ...

I’m currently subscribed to over 200 feeds, so it’s really annoying when I come across a weblog like Christoph Görn’s, which he writes in both German and English.

The problem is I now have various elements of me with feeds: my blog (Atom feed), what I’m listening to (RSS 1.0 feed), my bookmarks (RSS 1.0 feed) and my photos (RSS 2.0 or Atom feed). So if I want to s...

Well, thank fuck for that. Blogger finally starts publishing my posts again, after days of failing. This is possibly due to the fact that Blogger is now publishing atom feeds for all its blogs. It’s an opt-in process so unless you switch it on you don’t get it, but hurrah! here...

They say the Net expands as necessary to fill your free time, and this has been true for me for years, and with the advent of RSS aggregators there’s no excuse for anyone to have a moment’s free time; I’m subscribed to thirty feeds, but there are people who subscribe to three hundred, or more. But recently I’ve found this not being the case, in fact, the opposite; now, I don’t even have ...
