alt Hacker NewsWow, what timing. Not to shill, but I'm also nearly done building a directory of RSS feeds. It stemmed from a frustration of outdated and broken RSS feed collections, and the long slow death of the orange RSS subscribe button across the web. I'm not officially launched yet but I would love some feedback and maybe some of the RSS feeds that land in your directory can be added to mine.

Pardon the dust. There's an app tie-in that I'm almost done with too, a widget-first app that shows your RSS feed collections on your phone's home screen. It would really be great if we could start to bring about an RSS renaissance!

Nice.
I have sneaked in.
Suggestions:
White or almost white text would be better.
Make “Add” button visible on homepage.
Make a possibility to batch suggest feeds - a lot of people have opml xml exports from Google Reader so they can give it to you. Processing info would be nice so I as a supplier would immediately know how useful I was.
Move explanatory part of RSS to some other part than homepage.
I generally want a posts/day count on any feed I subscribe to. Many of these are content mills with 20+ posts per day I have no intention in sifting through.
