This is a list of the different ways I would like to view posts and data in my personal RSS Reader

Views

DATE
(traditional)

…also in reverse (oldest to newest posts, like Bloglines)

FREQUENTLY READ
(sorts feeds based on which ones you read often, eg. Rojo and many others)

RELEVANCY
(rank the latest unread posts based on your reading behaviour, ie, voting, clickthroughs, tagging, flagging, emailing, etc…see Rojo, Attensa, etc…)

POPULARITY
(rank the latest unread posts by incoming links…see OPML Sampler)

…based on your OPML or the whole blogosphere

WORD BURSTS
(a tag cloud driven by text analysis, ie. if the term “folksonomy” has been used 80 times from feeds in your OPML, you click on the word in the cloud, and see all the unread posts who have used that word…see TagCloud, and Personal Bee)

NATIVE TAG
(a tag cloud where all unread posts are collated according to the tag the native posts have attached to them)

FILTER
(read your subscriptions based on search terms, or filter out posts with a certain term…see GreatNews…Web RSS Reader, and Orijinn do this at the feed level)

This is different than smart feeds, or creating a search feed for your subscriptions, the idea is not to create a new feed that is filtered, but filter the feed as part of your subscription process, or otherwise filter the whole folder/tag, or your whole account.

Although I do like how Bloglines lets you create search feeds for your subscriptions (some Boolean operators would be great), and to be able to select feeds, folders for your search.

OUTGOING LINKS
- by outgoing links, like Rojo already does, but make it look more like Chuquet
(also at the tag level, based on the tags used on the native posts)

This is a list of the all the links people refer to in their blog posts (via blogs from within your OPML)
…what sites are being linked to the most from your subscriptions, each item lists the blogs that refered to them
(this can be based on all time, last year, month, week, day, hour, etc…)

PERSONAL TOP 50

Sort by: most read (click through’s), saved, flagged, incoming links
(eg. According to your OPML, contacts, whole Rojo Community, or based on the whole blogosphere)

Sort by: hour, day, week, month, 3 month, 6 month, year, all time

Top 50 Feeds (these can even be categorised by their tags)

- spliced feed, even at the tag level
- OPML URL (Reading List), even at the tag level

Top 50 Stories (these can even be categorised by their tags)

- spliced feed, even at the tag level
- OPML URL (List of Links), even at the tag level

…even Top Tags.

Conversation

Incoming links from your OPML or from the blogosphere for each post…see FeedFlare

…also show comments

…also show tags for that post in blogosphere and bookmark engines

Also I’d like to see threading features like on SharpReader based on these outgoing links, ie. if any unread/read posts in your RSS Reader have a common outgoing link with your present post, then list it under the present post.

No matter which view above, for every item in my RSS Reader I would like to see similar items as the one I’m viewing, based on my OPML (my subscriptions) or based on the blogosphere…these similar/related items would be generated by identifying common words in posts titles or some context analysis from the body of a post…not sure how Waypath Related or Memeorandum do this…Clippr (a prototype RSS Reader) has this on its planned feature set.

A voting feature for each item would also help to make viewing posts by relevancy more accurate.

Here is a post on recommendations in your RSS Reader.
