Hi Dylangs, Thank you for your valuable feedback.

- Screenshots: We're going to have those up on the home page shortly.

- Differentiated User experience: We've really worked hard at making it as easy as possible for users to fulfil certain tasks. Our objective is to have the functionality be self-evident and not require a manual or a help page to use the website. We have some pretty powerful customization options.

- This is a great point. We're just about coming to parity w.r.t Google reader-like functionality and we're late. However we believe our next release which will focus on personalization and making greater use of user training data will set us apart and deliver highly tailored relevant news to our users, cutting down the clutter.

Wouldn't that be a basic requirement for any well-designed mass-market web application? I certainly didn't need any help pages to figure out Google Reader or NewsBlur (which I'm very happy with, by the way) or any of the half-dozen other RSS reader sites I've tried.

They're still not there.
