Anyone check out the Bloglines beta recently? If so, what do you guys think?
I have been using Bloglines for a few years now - have tried a few other web based and desktop readers and always go back to it. It took me a little getting used to for the new look/feel of it, and honestly wasn't sure I liked it at first.
However, I do really enjoy how they now handle the items being marked as read. With the current version, if you click on a feed it defaults all items within that feed as read. Not a big deal, but if you have to run or close the browser, or IE crashes you can't go back to those unless you do a display within the last 72 hours for example. I dig how you actually need to scroll over the article to have it marked as read, rather nifty.
Just actually checked it out for the first time yesterday (I know, I'm cutting edge), but will do again later today and post anything else I like/disklike.
What about you?
