Maybe if someone creates a more "social" RSS experience! A Feedly with Friends! (does this already exist?)

Basically a follow-based social graph on top of the excellent feedly experience. So there's a "Social" tab, a timeline of sorts, with things like:

"Your friend just read 'Some Cool Article Title' from 'That publication'"

"X commented on Y: ... "

"X1, X2, X3 subscribed to 'Some Publication Making The Rounds'"

Call it Socialfeeds or Feedbook or something. Bootstrap over twitter/fb social graphs.

Back in the day of google reader I remember there were some basic social features (hope these are not false memories...) and I actually really enjoyed them because of course I want to discuss all the cool shit I'm reading with my friends!

NewsBlur resembles that description.

NewsBlur is my browser's home page. I was a refugee from Google Reader years ago. It supports many of the former's features, is open source, and a SaaS pro if you don't want to deal with self hosting.

But man, that's just a handful of it's features.

And it has a social feature, "blurblogs" on which you share articles. It's quite great, just signed up :)

And it's open source!

Thanks for the tip frumiousirc!
