a) Lets you read interesting content from all your usual sites in a single place.
b) Is accessible to Normals without needing to grok rss, feedreaders or subscribing.
c) Scales up to large number of sites even for power google-reader users without seeming like a chore. (I was subscribed to 1000 sites on google reader when I moved them to readwarp)
d) Smartly prioritizes the sites I care most about.
I've been using this for a few weeks and it's pretty damned awesome. My only complaints right now are that I think it should be easier to add feeds (abstracted away or not, it gets its articles from somewhere), and that I always say "no" to "do you want to unsubscribe this thing you've been downvoting repeatedly?" because it feels too destructive, like there's no way I could get it back if they ever put out an article that I care about
Thanks David! Yes I've got your email feedback stuck on my wall :) The next rev will lose the prompts and will largely be about prioritizing without relying on a blacklist.

e) Doesn't allow individual sites to swamp my reading just by pushing out a firehose of articles. (http://akkartik.name/blog/2009-05-19-21-30-46-soc)
f) Intelligently unsubscribes me from feeds I no longer care about.
g) Isn't completely swamped by the (ipad) popular story du jour.
