Comments on: Tomorrow’s Feed Reader Should Look Like Email http://www.adamduvander.com/simple/tomorrows-feed-reader-should-look-like-email Adam DuVander’s thoughts on keeping things simple.

To me, the difference between the feed and the email is that the source of the feed may never go away. I view the feed as infinite, just rolling along, and when something's passed my view, it has passed beyond the horizon. So I don't like when my feeds are deleted, on occasion I like to go back to them, though in most cases I can identify those in advance and set the keepers aside. Interesting perspective.

So, instead of getting all the posts from a individual that I subscribe to, I'd just get every 5th one for example. It'd let me still keep up on them, but maybe a little less. You could even have per subscription dials as well as the big overall one.

I doubt it works as you're describing, with intelligent filtering. Cross your fingers for Snow Leopard? :) I’ve never tried it before, and I’m sure you know this already, but Mail.app is also an RSS reader.

I heard rumblings a month or so ago that Google was developing an API to eventually allow programmers to write interfaces and extensions for Google Reader. I hope it's true, because there's definitely a market for all sorts of crazy filtering/enhancements. Amen.
