Made me smile, when I tried a German RSS Feed. The sentiment-analysis was always negative, as the German word "die" (=the female/plural form) was confused for the concept of dying.

So, this really is non the less a great service. I will try to incorporate this in an experiment I am running. I am using the Readability-API till now, but it is (on German news sites) not that good in extracting the pure text-content.

It nearly always has navigation-, or advertisement-text in it. That does make it difficult to do text-analysis on the content, as I am trying to do.
