Syndirella report

OK, as promised, a further report on the new aggregator.

Dmitry has done a fantastic job on this software - I'm an instant convert.

I understand there were some minor problems with the toolbar on the initial release, but these have now hopefully been fixed in version 0.9a.

Three features converted me. Firstly, the application does not rely on a browser to do it's job. It's a fully functional desktop app. Secondly, it incorporates Mark Pilgrim's RSS autodiscovery ideas, and lastly the feed updating works correctly. Oh. Make that four features. It is also capable of scraping websites. Now we don't have to keep wishing for our favourite sites to syndicate.

The only thing I'm really missing from Aggie is the ability to set the referer URI.
