James Robertson pointed me to BottomFeeder - another free news aggregator currently on the market. The interesting part about BottomFeeder is that it is written in Smalltalk, which is not quite a common language nowadays.

I have just upgraded to MovableType 2.6, and installed Brad Choate's MTTextile plugin. This is a test of the Textile formatting.

• I love bulleted lists. I hate entering HTML by hand.
• WYSIWYG would be even better, but Textile is better than raw HTML.
• I wonder if tools like w.bloggar could support it.

Textile sounds more and more compelling.  Maybe later...Must work now.

An important achievent today: My.Yandex, the only RSS syndication service in the Russian Internet that I'm aware of (maybe the only one that exists), now exports its list of feeds in the OPML format. This is especially exciting because this finally makes Syndirella useful for Russian users...

So tomorrow I'll implement my part of the agreement with Yandex - support for importing OPML files from HTTP sites, with the possibility to preview the feeds and select the ones that should be imported. This will, of course, open the doors to other major RSS feed directories like MoreOver and NewsIsFree.
