also, bloglines is behaving unusually flakily for me. i mean, even for bloglines.

i like the bloglines UI when it works. but i'm wondering if maybe we should be seeing other people.

are there any other good *location independent* feed aggregators? i want to be able to maintain feed state among any of several machines. bonus points if it does the "keep as new" thing, too.

I finally gave up on Bloglines after it spent a weekend not remembering anything I'd already looked at.

I switched to Google Reader and it's worked perfectly for me. I haven't regretted it.

You can keep articles as new in it, and it's got a very clever thing it does of marking them as read as you scroll through them, adding new articles to the end of the page as needed.

I'll echo [livejournal.com profile] johnromkey. I've used Google Reader for over a year, and can use it on both my desktop and my laptop.

*grunt* reader.google.com. I switched away from Akkregator when I was moving from XP to Linux and back again a lot. Also, reader.google.com has an iphone smart version that is veddy nice to work with.

And keeps read status across machines, obviously.

Nthing Google Reader. I don't like putting all my eggs in one basket (Gmail, Google Calendar, etc.), but I made the switch a couple months ago after Bloglines proved itself unreliable, and I haven't regretted the choice.
