Did Some House Cleaning with a Couple Feeds - Digg, Fark, Yahoo Buzz, Bloglines

I did some house cleaning over the last couple days with some feeds on the site.

I removed Bloglines from Search because the site's closing down in November. Ask.com, which owns it, thinks that RSS readers are going the way of the dinosaurs. That's not good news for me, but I'm just gonna chug along.

Digg v4 reshuffled some of its categories, so some feeds no longer work and had to be removed - Digg Travel, for instance. Same deal with Yahoo Buzz.

For some odd reason, Fark feeds no longer work on the site, so I disabled them. They work when I feed them to an RSS reader, so I wonder if they're blocking me. I doubt it; I bet they might have reconfigured their RSS feeds, and my RSS engine can't handle it.

I'm gonna start adding some new features to the homepage in the coming weeks. It's tough to find time to work on the site when you're home with two kids.
