Reasons Why People Unsubscribe from RSS feeds

Links, feed reader

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

34 Reasons Why People Unsubscribe from RSS feeds:

Too many posts - 37
(that’s a real problem.. and that’s why I unsubscribed blogs like gizmodo)

Infrequent Posting (or the blog is dead) - 29
(That’s not a problem for me: In google reader I don’t even see the blogs with no posting)

Partial Excerpts Feeds - 25
(That’s HUGE problem about feeds. I also hate the feed without no images that quickly tell me what is the post about)

Too many posts that I see elsewhere (Redundant, Repeated or Recycled News) - 19
(Hate that too.. But I’m used about that. Isn’t there some coder that wanna try to fix this problem? Maybe implementing some “reduntants news” finding and merging?)

Uninteresting Content - 16
(Why did you subscribe it?)

Feedreader matrix: what features?

feed reader, feed reader matrix project

I want to share my list of attributes for a single feedreader (to be used in the feedreader matrix).
Can you help me adding some more features to organize feed readers?

Feed reader:

  1. Name
  2. Type (web, client)
  3. OS (windows, osx, linux..)
  4. Cost (free, $)
  5. Import / export
  6. Sync with other feedreader
  7. Views (newspaper view, custom, 3 panels…)
  8. Sorting (date, custom order, relevance)
  9. Organize (tagging, foldering, marking)
  10. Search
  11. Api
  12. Interface (simple, complex, standard, futuristic)
  13. Keyboar shortcuts
  14. Ignore duplicate posts
  15. Stats of your habits
  16. screenshots

is there more? Can you help me to identify what feature can help to choose your next feed reader?

“feed reader” a collaborative matrix

feed reader, feed reader matrix project, mac

Planning to make a “feed reader” matrix comparison. There will be 3 functions:

  1. Adding feed readers to database (collaborative contributions)
  2. Browsing feed readers list and informations
  3. Filtering the best feed reader by choosing features

This is an image of the last function:

What do you think? Will you contribute adding feed readers to database and specifing features?
