Pito Salas announced another evolution of BlogBridge, to release 0.7.1 with some important improvements. BlogBridge is a blog and RSS reader that allows you to find and filter a lot of content quickly and effectively. Two unique capabilities are a set of heuristics to filter out old feeds based on a variety of factors that the user ranks and the ability to tap into a variety of web-based indexes to find and evaluate potential resources. As the announcement states, the major new features are
“You can indicate your personal rating by clicking directly on the BlogStarz! for a certain Feed. You can see the effect of this, because the BlogStarz are silver when they are indicating BlogBridge's "recommendation" and gold after you click on them to record your rating. This allows you much greater and easier control over the filtering and presentation of Guides. In the future we will use the community's ratings as one more factor in determining our recommendations.
Guides are now sorted, Unread Guides first, then by the number of Starz. This makes it easier to quickly review the most important Feeds first based on how much activity they have had and also how highly they are rated. Both the sorting and Feed and Article display.”
The latest version is available at their BlogBridge site.
