I Hate Full RSS Feeds

They’re like Marmite - you either love them or hate them. Well, I definitely hate full RSS feeds as for me they defeat the whole point of RSS. I use a RSS reader primarily to help me track the large number of websites that I follow quickly. But the other reason [...]

Forget Feedlounge - Use NewsAlloy

I guess I should have predicted this. You wait months and months for a new service to arrive, in this case Feedlounge, and then along comes a better service which is free.

I’ve been using NewsAlloy thanks to TechCrunch’s recommendation as my RSS reader for the last two days and I’m very impressed. It [...]

Feedlounge (finally) Open For Business

I just received an email from FeedLounge, which promises to be the best RSS reader on the market, saying that they have finally launched. Unfortunately, there is no free service available, with the service costing $5/month.
Seems quite steep to me, given that there is such a plethora of free RSS readers out there, so I [...]

RSS Readers - What Do You Use?

What RSS reader do you use? I’ve reduced the number of feeds that I read to a more manageable 99, but I’m still in the market for a better way to read these feeds. If you are interested in what

Google Desktop - How Does it Select What Feeds To Cover?

The feed for my blog is managed by Feedburner. I chose to do this as Feedburner allows me to track how many people take my feed and which readers they use. Over the last month or so, I’ve been averaging around 60-80 daily visits via RSS out of around 2,000 daily visits on [...]

New My Yahoo! Beta Site - First Looks

I’ve been using My Yahoo! as my homepage for about 8 years until recently. Frankly, I’d been disappointed that the service had remained unchanged for a long time and over the last couple of months I’ve been alternating between using Rojo.com and Start.com as my homepage.Well, Yahoo! today very quietly launched a new beta [...]

See Who Is Linking To Your pPosts - Try TalkDigger

Kevin Burton alerted me to another linking/citation service from PubSub which I didn’t realise was available. The PubSub service is quite cool and is well laid out - here’s PubSub’s profile for Connected Internet.However, it was frustrating yet again to see that PubSub have picked up sites other linking tools like Technorati and IceRocket [...]
