Alright, one of you people is a little weird. Since I’ve started including the full content of posts in my feed, I’ve definitely seen an increase in aggregators. (and a decrease in page view) Thats fine.
But you, the one who is running RssBandit, nntp//rss, and something involving LWP, thats over doing it a bit. I promise I serve the same RSS feeds to all user-agents, really. One aggregator should be good enough.
Laze talks about using gnews2rss to extract a custom RSS feed from Google News, and then parse and re-display it with Magpie. Home rolled news clipping service, like this one on progeria.
Started using Straw yesterday. I’m very happy with it. Works great. Especially once I figured out how to get links to open in Mozilla instead of Galeon. And is much more scalable in an era of RSS everywhere. (see cvs2rss) The only change I really want is the ability to categorize feeds, and only see certain groups, because I already have a lot of feeds I track.
In lieu of this switch, I’m retiring the Tracking sidebar, if you use it, I can keep it available somewhere if you like, let me know. I’m replacing it with an MLP log like Anil’s instead. A form I’ve been finding very liberating today.
Do need to figure out how to work in the blogroll aspects.

I tend to write about books, coffee, the Web, open source, collaboration technologies and XML.
I spend most of my days writing code, and occasionally fomenting dissent.
