Feedster announced that it has reinvented itself with the primary goal of sucking less, which is always a noble aim. Via Bloggers Blog.
I have always loved Feedster and not just because I know they guy.
They were early on the wagon and did a lot of good work. And they had a crapload of VC money, too.
Unfortunately, lots of what you got back was garbage. In other words, they sucked.
Even their free RSS feeds and the fact they were giving anything and everything away for free wasn’t good, because you get what you pay for.
And when I called them to see if they had productized any of their services for B2B sales, I was told that we could basically do everything we wanted for free.
But the results were always really dirty and full of splog and spam returns. Unusable.
Now Feedster has gone way further than just a face lift, but it looks like they’re working on faster, easier, sexier, and more advanced. And isn’t that what we’re all looking for in a partner, even when that partner is a blog search engine solution?
I have a lot of hope because I want Scott Rafer to rule the world!

Chris,
Thanks for the support, both of Feedster and me. Everbody’s working hard to deserve it. BTW, I left Feedster in September and am now just a friend of the company (and shareholder).
