It's a neat idea that doesn't address the real problem - deciding *personal* value. I think it's much more important having an indicator of whether a feed is relevant to my use, not the general public's. Thanks for the pointer – hadn’t heard of them before.

The ones that cover a subject that you care deeply about should stay in their original form in your RSS reader. The rest can be piped through aideRSS. In my case the split is 60 aiderss/40 unfiltered. @logical Extremes: You should use aideRSS for some, not all, your feeds.

You'll see what's popular with the masses, but not necessarily see items that will mean more to you than to others (would tend to filter out minority interests and viewpoints).
