Resetting my blog reading life

I always put all of my important stuff on a separate hard drive partition.  Always.  For applications that write to c: drive I always use Junction to create a hard link to my other partition.  Well… apparently not everything.   I used to have a hard link for RssPopper but apparently it was writing to c: drive and I recently rebuilt my machine and lost it all. 

So, I am starting over now.  Instead of having ~300 feeds in my OPML, I now have zero.  You would think I would at least have a backup of my OPML file, but no.

I feel really out of touch so I am going to build it back up as soon as possible, but I think I am going to do it with something like NewsGator that has online synchronization capabilities.  I haven’t used NewsGator in years so I will share my experiences with it.

You oughta look at bloglines or one of the online rss readers.  Then you can take that OPML locally if you want to.  That way you have a way to look at it from any machine or do it from your local machine.  Best of all worlds!
