Reader Community Question: OPML or Link List?
So I'm still collecting the RSS feeds of Loyal Scooblog readers. I'm still enjoying the fresh content I'm being exposed to as a result of this. I've also been able to participate in discussions I would have never heard about before. I do have a question for the members of the reader community.
Should I continue to enlarge the list of users on the right hand side of the page or simply keep a link to an up to date OPML file instead of a lengthy list that is only going to get longer as time passes?
Let me know what you think.

Well, keep the links of the blogs you really like on the right side and all others in OPML - Anonymous

My issue is that then I'm picking favorites. Something that I:
A. Don't like doing.
B. Couldn't actually do very easily. I actually read them all evenly. - Anonymous

I like the idea about catagorizing the list. I need to see if there is some easy script or a service I can use to post this OPML file. - Anonymous

I must be brutally honest and say that it is nice to seem a link to my blog on yours but I think that a categorised list would probably make more sense - Anonymous

I read. Therefore, I am.
Josh--Do you think that our blogging software for MSDN/TechNet should provide an automated "People who read my blog" blogroll update feature that would enable any blgger to do what you've done here? Or is the personal interaction that your manual system requires too valuable to sacrifice?
Great idea! - Anonymous

I like the personal interaction and I think the feature is too specific. The real feature request... the thing that's annoying about what I'm doing... is that the "lists" of links should accept a valid OPML file to import a large set of links. Also, all of the lists should be expand/collapsible.
