Eric sounds pretty switched on. I know from people i talk to who are not particularly technical (i.e. the vast majority of users on the web!) that they’ve just started to understand the different between a web page and email !! People are becomming comfortable with search too.

They really need to be guided when it is anything outside of those three, so anything that can be done to help them can only be good. I agree even the drag and drop interface is a nice addition. That’s how most users expect it to work - and personally, the edit folders from before was a pain.

One thing - they should maybe add folder “templates” - perhaps based on wisdom of crowds and what others have called folders where they put feeds i subscribe to (and what other feeds may be in there…) as i’m still trying to figure out thte best names for my folders.
