Activity # 9 provided links for some other sites which are potentially helpful in subscribing to newsfeeds that interest me. Honestly, I am still more comfortable in checking a new site first and then looking for that friendly RSS icon if I do decide that it is worth subscribing too. Other than that, the search tools of bloglines are also very helpful and get basically everything else I want.
I did try feedster.com but for some reason I couldn't get in to the site. Maybe I tried to access it when it's down or undergoing maintenance. Topix.com on the other hand is pretty cool 'coz it automatically detected that I'm accessing a computer in Jacksonville and immediately gave me a variety of links for local news and blogs. I didn't particularly find the syndic8.com that appealing but I may have to explore it more too.
In the end, these additional tools are pretty cool and provide more options to the user. One just needs to decide which is best suited to their taste and needs.
