Blogging Roller

Stowe Boyd, who I met at the BlogOn conference in NYC, has an <a href= "http://www.corante.com/getreal/archives/2005/12/01/rss_readering_why_rss_readers_are_no_good_for_me_and_you_too_i_bet.php">interesting post about feed readers, how they just don't work for him and some cool feature ideas for those who develop feed readers. I suspect his experiences are pretty common. I've had a very hard time convincing my tech savvy friends and family to use an Atom/RSS reader. I think people get into a comfortable routine for web readering, to use Boyd's word, and that's where they want to stay. In my case, I'm addicted to my reader software. You'll have to pry NetNewsWire out of my cold dead hands. Via Scoble.
