Thing 15: Deja Viewing RSS
I have found RSS feeds to be easier to understand and use, but I have a complaint: I'm reading the feeds, and lets say that there are fifteen or twenty new items in a given feed stream. When I start reviewing them, I'll open one, scan it, and when I go back to Bloglines, all of the new items are no longer listed. I know that I could open the item in a new window or tab, but when I'm 'moving fast' to get through as many of the items as I can, it just seems easy to overlook. I wonder, is there a way to create a duplicate feed that I use to archive a feed so that I have one that's within the last week and another that's new over the last month...? It's food for thought.

I haven't seen any settings that can be changed in Bloglines to solve that issue but I haven't looked into it much either I admit. However, if you want to check out another RSS aggregator, Google Reader allows you to open the feeds like email so the ones you don't open will show up as new when you return. If you have never been there, go to Google, click on More, then on Reader.
