Trying out a new RSS Aggregator

I've been messing around with Dave Winer's new href="http://feeds.scripting.com">OPML sharing site and adding a
bunch of feeds to href="http://www.disobey.com/amphetadesk">Amphetadesk/AmphetaOutline.
For some reason it isn't showing a bunch of sites as having new news
(come on, nothing from fark.com in 3
hours!?)

This evening on got some email from the author of href="http://liferea.sourceforge.net">liferea who said he had
fixed a problem with the HTTP headers of my server and recommended
trying out the version (0.4.7) from CVS. It works! Thanks Lars!

So, I'm going to switch for a week to liferea exclusively and see how
that goes.

One thing that I'm going to miss is one click to add a feed from href="http://feeds.scripting.com">feeds.scripting.com to my
aggregator. I don't see how liferea could insinuate itself into the
mix.
