OK - it didn't save my Newsriver newsfeeds OPML file, but no matter. I could have imported the saved version but Bloglines is my active Newsfeed depot and it took a matter of seconds to download and import my 303 feeds. Scanning threads now; I prefer the Bloglines way to read and keep control over my news reading, but sometimes it nice to lie back and watch the 'river of news' flow by....

My God! It did just work..... after a hard disk crash I'd paid for data to be saved to a disk and had everything ready to re-install, but didn't in fact need to do anything - Idownlaoded the OPML Editor on the new laptop, remembered my password and everything just worked first time - as if by a miracle!

Not sure what I'll use this for other than follow the development of this tool. But my first blog using RadioUserland seems utterly irretrevievable and my main site is made using Rapidweaver... I have a big project in mind where usability and cost will be a factor so I want to keep options open...

Come to think of it, my three years of RadioUserland blogpostss is all in outlines, so shouldn't it be possible to import them all to make a new blog out of the remnants? OPML Editor needs some modern templates to make sites presentable, however.
