… from Bloglines to Rojo. I was recently thinking how far behind the competition Bloglines has fallen, with nary an improvement since being acquired. So when Rojo caught my eye yesterday with its relevance oriented features, that was enough for me.

What was most interesting about the transition was how seamless it was. I merely provided Rojo the URI for my Bloglines subscriptions, hit “Import”, and voila! Need the ad-hoc exchange of information between machines be any more difficult than that?
