(1) Some people read from the bottom up

(2) I really am mad at Rachel for this and that's from someone who's been writing webcrawlers [1] since 1998, been an RSS innovator, and been responsible for complex systems when they fail.

(3) Maybe I am missing it but I don't see an actual feed for that URL, I see only an OPML file. Dave is really gay [2] for OPML files but I'm not because I still have to work to fetch all the items. Yet, visually the OPML file and blogroll look like a planet and you're not the first person who's pointed Dave's blogroll as a solution as opposed to the problem that I see it is.

(4) Looking at the head of the list I think "Daily Kos" and "404 Media" suck but that I already subscribe to many of them like "Arstechica" -- looking at the tail of the list I see there are gems that I'm not getting. If those things were getting aggregated topically it would please both me and Rachel.

[1] that don't crash your server

[2] in a good sense!
