Guide or Reading Lists? Reading Lists!
Pito Salas asks
whether the "Guides" in Blogbridge (my favorite RSS aggregator) should be renamed to "Reading Lists". From my point of view the concept of "Reading Lists" is much more focused than "Guides", because Reading Lists are either a list of recommended reading created by myself or other people (OPML bookmarks), but "Guides" only indicate that other and only other people guide me or tell me what to read.

By the way I would completely drop the mapping of one "Guide" to multiple OPML files (or Reading Lists). Just have one Reading List for every OPML file subscribed to.
