Idea
A much more nuanced take on feedreader rss subscriptions. Being able to look at one’s subscriptions over time, pause subscriptions, see one’s identity/interest shifts over times based on aggregated tags of the posts of the individual blogs or seeing a digg/techmemorandum view of subscriptions i’ve paused/said goodbye to but still want to be alerted when something really happens.
Anyone seen this explored?

Care to develop the concept? I think it would be quite doable in Drupal….
As you probably already guessed.

It’s probably doable on any platform
I’d love to help if someone ran with it for real.
As always i think Dave Winer prototyped something in this direction many years ago.
I think it’s the “letting go” part of it that’s interesting. Cleaning out 50 rss subscriptions made me realize how hard it is to let go - and how interesting the stuff you let go is.
And how much your feedreader subscriptions tell about yourself - both for others - but certainly also to figure out what it is one is doing with life…
