I kept trying to open my OPML file in the OPML Editor and it wouldn’t open. I had a few complaints about that as well. I tried both the OPML file that NewsGator exported as well as the one that Bloglines exported. Newsgator’s OPML file wouldn’t even open (gave me an error) but Bloglines opened with blank titles.

So, I did some cleaning and uploaded an OPML-compatible OPML file.

I wish everyone would make their files compatible with the OPML editor, though. I’m using that a lot lately.

UPDATE: I can’t upload this as an OPML file cause Radio Userland keeps converting it to HTML when it uploads and WordPress.com doesn’t support file uploads yet. If someone could put that on a server somewhere that’d be most helpful. The ZIP file linked from here contains the OPML file.

I can’t delete more than about 50 feeds at one time in Bloglines. I’ve complained about this before and they haven’t fixed it. Bloglines has no way for me to update my RSS feeds without deleting all my feeds and reimporting feeds from someplace else. That really sucks. There should be an “erase all” feature. Oh, yes, you can try the “Check All” and then “Remove” feature, but it doesn’t work. So I’m forced to delete all my feeds at about 30 per delete. Sigh.

NewsGator let me delete all 1378 feeds I had without burping. Oh, speaking of which, since stopping my Radio UserLand blog my NewsGator subscription level there has gone from 15,000 to 18,000. Whew! Maybe that’s the trick to getting more popular. Just stop publishing! Oh, well, there’ll be time for that when I’m dead. Heheh.

UPDATE: Mark Fletcher, founder of Bloglines, just left a comment here on this post and said this is an IE problem and that it works in Firefox. Thanks Mark for clarifying that!
