Write Up @ Killer Startups
We had a nice surprise today when we saw that Siri over at Killer Startups had a review of OS Feeds. Make sure to go check it out and give us a vote 
I think Siri brought up some great questions which I’d like to point out.
Isn’t this something you could easily do yourself with your own feed reader? Yes you could definitely do this with your own feedreeder but if you look at how easy we are trying to make it for you to read your news there’s some value to that. Also you can get a view of the most popular links (which you could add to your own feed as well.) Going to our homepage just gives you a quick view of some of the hottest stories for that particular topic. Rather than linking you directly to the outbound source, OSFeeds brings you to another screen with a brief summary, prompting you to click yet again to get to the whole story—a more direct approach would seem to wanting. You’re absolutely right, we will continue to tweak the engine to allow direct links right to the story. So that you can directly go there or click on our view of the story which also includes some other statistics and potentially a cleaner view of the story and other related ones. Also some links don’t even work. Hmmm, not sure about this one. I’d love to know if there are any in particular. The presentation is a little low key, could use some sprucing up. Ya we got this too :), we were actually going for a low key design. Something that’s not offensive and really just serves the content.
