  Very nice. I can finally add Hackaday back to my RSS Reader. I've occasionally thought about making a feed summarizer that determines the relative popularity of each item in a feed and only passes along those that pass a certain threshold, but never got around to actually doing it. Incidentally, this seems to reject feed:// URLs.

    I didn't know about these -- I'd like to support it if I can find a way in Ruby. I'm looking into it.
