Feed Reader comparison feedback
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)
