Camworld was the first blog I think I ever came across, and it honestly could have been around 6 years ago that I first saw it. He went on a big hiatus recently but is back and blogging more than ever. In fact, I ran into him in GNE once, and did the "are you cameron from camworld.com?" thing.

Luke Hutteman's SharpReader (in my mind) has finally became the killer app among RSS Aggregators. It has some memory overhead, and a hefty prerequisite download, but with the new features added in 0.9.1 I think they are worth it. It finally adds the spacebar goes to next headline function that I definately missed from Syndirella, along with a very nice trimming function that removes old headlines after a predetermined time (unless you lock them, or they are unread [by default]).
I am still interested in seeing Nick Bradbury's FeedDemon, but it will need to be really clean for me to switch again (and worth the money).
*update* 0.9.1.1 has been released (2 Small Bugs *smashed*)
