Bloglines Adds Drag and Drop, Finally

If you read a lot of feeds via Bloglines, you’ll know how painful managing your folders has been with the very old school interface. I noticed today that things have finally improved - real drag and drop and some prettier icons, too! No longer will I dread organizing feeds only because the UI [...]

Google Analytics launched - Google does site stats
