Feed Reader comparison feedback

Filed under: General, rss, readers

Some feedback on The State of Online Feed Readers.

Some features to add:

- Re-syndication of latest posts, latest flagged, latest saved, etc…
- Sub-folders
- Blogroll script
- River of News
- Feed folksonomy
- Bookmark folksonomy
- Subscribe to Reading Lists (none of these can do this at the moment)
- Search feeds
- Filter a feed…see Originn, and Newsfarm
- Mark a single item as Unread…see Attensa Online
- System tray notifier for each post…see SharpReader
- Recommended Links based on outgoing links…see Rojo
(SharpReader does this even better by threading)
- Feeds for clips…see Newsgator Online and Rojo
- Print a post or print a page…see Feedshow
- Feeds for tags…see Rojo (although RSS2.0 would be prefered)
- Wikipad…see Gritwire
- Email to RSS…see Bloglines
- Blog this, comment this

Modify
Date sorting - what about reverse order…Rojo needs this
Mark feed read for each page…Rojo needs this
Relevance sorting - is this feeds or posts…Rojo does both

I’d like to see Rojo implement a comments field for items whether you mojo, flag, or tag the item.

More:
Rojo: functionality and attention data
RSS Reading: different views
RSS Reading: recommendations
RSS reading by relevance: OPML memetracking

Queries
Does Bloglines relevance sort?
Does Rojo search the web?
Does Pluck Web Edition publish subscriber counts? (I’d really like to know this)

Wow NewsAlloy is loaded with features…a bit overwhelming with choice…I’ll have to check it out.

  1. The State of Online Feed Readers - An Addendum

    My pappy used to say, “You’ve got to crawl before you can walk.” Ok, I don’t have a pappy, I have a Dad. Truth be told, he never used to tell me that.
    But it was a good way for me to introduce my point. When it comes to the stat…
