Evaluating RSS Feeds – How to know when to delete them

March 6, 2006 · 2 Comments

According to Richard in the comments to this post:

The next version of Newsgator Outlook Edition (currently in Beta 2) [has a feature called] “Test Drive” [which] allows you to subscribe for x days, then an alert pops up to tell you its expired – either kill the alert, subscribe fully, or another test drive.

This is a feature I’d love to see in FeedLounge and Gregarius.  Although, I’d like these alerts to be in a feed.  In other words, maybe I should have 2 extra feeds in my feed reader.  Important application messages and non-important application messages.  In one of those feeds, my feed reader could post messages with delete/subscribe buttons for each eval feed that has expired.
