Hey Jace.. First, I do agree with you. Programs should build feeds that work with TGP’s and Blogs. But understand when a program releases feeds they will almost always work for TGP’s and not blogs, since we built hosted galleries for TGPs. Since that is the case a very small % of programs had full write-ups for galleries, most only had short descriptions. So now some programs have to build 1000’s of blog posts for galleries, it’s a huge project that gets put in line with other projects.

100’s of programs will be coming out with feeds in the next year. As the standard starts to get set in the industry it will catch on to others. The entire feed world is still very new to almost everyone. 10% of the programs have feeds, and pretty much all them are starting to improve on what they have.

Once a standard starts to get set and people get educated on how to really build and properly use feeds you will find that software like feedwordpress and most other 3rd party readers won’t be needed. It isn’t a standard for programs to follow, it’s a standard that will happen once everyone realizes what feeds can really be used for.
