WordPress testing still ongoing, just working on the template … trying to decide if I will stick with this current template (even though it’s plain I kinda like it) or if I should try something new. There might be some disruption over the weekend…

Are you going to have an RSS yokie on the new version? I’ve finally worked out how to group RSS feeds in Firefox, but it doesn’t detect a feed from your blog.
I’m loading up the new version of Safari next week when I get OS X Tiger, which has an RSS aggregator built into it. Should be good.
RSS is the one of the reasons I decided to switch now, I was happy enough with Greymatter but it’s pretty basic and seemingly not being developed. WordPress is installed but I have to start on the template…
I use Sage with Firefox for RSS, I really only use the Slugger feed though, even though I have many others installed. Sage does the job but I might try something new … any suggestions?
I have never tried Sage, as to be honest, I’m just feeling my way around this whole RSS thing at the moment.
At the moment, all I do is click on the little icon on the bottom right of the Firefox browser, and save the feed into a bookmark folder. Then as I go down through the list, it shows a list of the feeds from each site. So it’s not really an aggregator.
I had a go on the new version of Safari on my brother-in-law’s new iBook a couple of weeks ago, but as (a) it wasn’t my machine and (b) I wasn’t sure what I was doing, I didn’t learn a lot. Since then I have had a good look at the Safari page in the Apple site, and it looks good. I’m loading up Tiger next week (herself is giving to me as a birthday present), so I’ll give it a good going over then.
I find Sage handy. I have an icon on the tool bar, I click it and the Sage folder with the RSS feeds open in the sidebar. I don’t use it for anything advanced (I know feck all about RSS anyway) but it’s handy for sites like Slugger etc.
Here’s a screen shot:
