Wow! Cool. That seems like exactly what I wanted to have. Thanks!
Of course, the first link makes a bad impression due to the fact it's just a blog entry, and I could not understand what it's about (as blog entries go). As for the second link, Bloglines was dead-on-arrival for me when I tried it. [livejournal.com]. NewsGator was the web feeds' web-based reader of choice of a hacker friend of mine, and she said she's very happy with, so I'll take a look. I had an OK-to-relatively-bad experience with the Google RSS Reader, which I don't know if provides an API. (And otherwise doesn't have search).
I should note that one should ask whether NewsGator allows their API to be used by competitors, or if they have weird "Intellectual Property" claims to it. The NewsGator's examples contains nothing but a small Python example, but I suppose writing a half-decent GUI in Perl based on the HTTP-based API, won't be too hard.
