myFeedz is not for me

by webbythoughts on February 19, 2007

I am actually shocked at how much I dislike myFeeds, the new “Social Newspaper” from Adobe. It apparently is supposed to use some magic voodoo to sort through feeds and then you tell it what kinds of things you like and it will present them for you.

The interface is bad. The site design is bad. The OPML import just doesn’t work for me on Firefox or IE 6.0.

I do not see myFeedz becoming a regular stopping spot for me. I don’t really need or even want something like this that recommends posts to read based on tags. That might be because if I am going to search for something specific, I will use Google. If I want to find new blogs to read, I almost always do that because I read about them in somebody else’s blog post. For example I found out about myFeedz through Robert Scoble.

So, myFeedz solves none of my wants or needs. Let me know if you find a use for it that I am missing.
