Just found this cool AJAX RSS Aggregator –
Tiny Tiny RSS. It’s a nice way to aggregate RSS feeds, is designed well, and is something you can hack on!

I have been monitoring the progress of Gregarius for quite some time, and I’m pretty pleased with it. It’s not 100% AJAX-based, but it does feature “AJAX powered item tagging,” “A WordPress-like theme engine,” and it is “Committed to web standards.”
Aww… it requires PostgreSQL. I wonder how hard it would be to convert it to use MySQL, for the “other 90%” of us.
Yup. That it needs PostgreSQL makes it non-useful for me. If a MySQL interface becomes available, I’ll use it!
Thanks for the tip about Gregarius. It’s just what I was looking for! Once I can collapse the listing of feeds on the front page into folders (instead of displaying everything), it will be perfect for my needs.
I am a fool. It DOES collapse feeds into folders!
Why do I need this if I use bloglines?
Because Bloglines is slow and sometimes takes as much as twelve hours to discover new articles/posts. On the other hand, a server-side aggregator provides almost the same benefits as Bloglines and, since it functions as a normal feed aggregator, instantly discovers new articles/posts. The only downfall is that you have to host it yourself.
