It would be handy if I could categorize a feed at the same time that I subscribe to it from the hotlist page in FeedLand. The "choose categories for feed" icon shows up for feeds you've already subscribed to, so once you've clicked the checkbox, you need to refresh the page and scroll back down the list to get it to appear.

I prefer the rendering of feed items in the mailbox view in FeedLand to the river view. The river view seems to omit line breaks for some feeds, and other formatting, that show up in the mailbox view.
#
You can reorder your tabs in the river view by changing the order of categories in your settings in FeedLand, but I can't figure out how to tell it which tab to default to. Looks like it always defaults to the second category in your list, but that seems a bit weird.
#
I've assigned my feeds to three categories in FeedLand. If I set one of them as my category for home page news, items from the other categories show up as well. Not sure if this is a bug or I am misunderstanding what that setting is for.
#
Nice, new posts seem to be showing up instantly in FeedLand now. I think the feed may need to support
rssCloud, but
mine does, so maybe others do, too.
#
FeedLand lets you create something called a "news product", a curated river of news built from a collection of feeds. Here's one Ken Smith has created for
news from NASA. It seems like I ought to be able to subscribe to that news product via a checkbox. Perhaps there's an RSS feed for it that I can't find. It would also be neat to be able to see which feeds make up that river from within FeedLand, too.
#
Some FeedLand news products, like
this one, have an XML icon that looks like it should provide a list of the feeds that make up the river. But the OPML file appears to be empty. It looks like the
linked URL puts the category where the name of the user that created it should go, and uses "undefined" as the category.
