Philters Flashfeeds

Just by looking at my traffic stats over the past few years, ive noticed that its becoming a regular trend to check the flash blogs, in the morning, at lunchtime and in the evening before leaving the office, but as of late, ie. the past few months, so many flash blogs have popped onto the web that its a huge task to check them all out, when your in a rush, i think there are around 12 or 13 that i check very regularly and its tedious and takes ages on a 56k connection. Philip from Philterdesign decided to build a flash based news aggregator, that fetches all the newsfeeds from the different blogs and displays them all in an easy to use, clean and crisp interface, saving time typing all those urls in the browser. Hes placed it online for others to use, and its gotten alot of attention with it being the first of its kind. Personally, i think its a wicked idea, and i am currently implementing the same kind of idea into my own site, checkout the newsfeeds from other sites on my site, kind of thing. Very useful, definetley worth a bookmark.
