If you're doing it for fun, why not do a personal side project rather than being paid to work on someone else's idea? I didn't like any of the other RSS reader

I didn't like any of the other RSS readers out there, so I wrote my own, and now I'm using it and liking it. (I was pretty annoyed when Google Reader shut down.) Now I'm working on my delicious clone. (I really liked that site and was sad when Yahoo and AVOS ruined it.)

- fsk 12y agoI'm writing it as a single-user (for myself only) project. Is there enough interest out there for me to put it up as a project? (That's only a little extra work; I'd just need to add logins and user accounts.) I really miss delicious, and none of the others that I've tried are any good. Also, my RSS reader has one neat feature. On WordPress and Blogger, there's an undocumented feature that lets you grab older items (?paged= on WP, ?start-index= on Blogger). That's really useful when you find a new site and want to look at the history.
