I want to clarify a little bit about your last statement (”Feedwhip is based in a social network environment…”), specifically as it relates to privacy concerns:

First of all, we don’t currently support tags on feeds, so browsing by tag isn’t possible. But it is on the list of things to add.

Secondly, any subscription can be made private so that nobody knows that it is being monitored.

Thirdly, there’s no way to trace a subscription back to a given user. You can see that somebody is monitoring a given URL, but there’s no way to know who is doing it.

Thanks for the review. Creating a more RSS-reader-like UI is a great idea, and something I’ll add to the ever-expanding list of things to do.

Regards,
Steve Leroux
