Thank you for the feedback
After myFeedz was released on Adobe Labs, we have been seeing tremendous feedback on blogs, technology websites and in our e-mail inboxes. Whether it was positive or negative, we look at it as constructive criticism and we assure you that your comments and opinions get incorporated into the myFeedz roadmap. We track everything people say about myFeedz, whether it’s something we enjoy hearing or not.
The best way to see what people think of myFeedz is myFeedz itself. Or you could try Google’s Blog Search and Technorati. But just for the sake of it, we’ll list some of the reviews myFeedz has been getting on the blogosphere:
- Amit Agarwal from Digital Inspiration covers the main features of myFeedz and wonders how Adobe will monetize this.
- JD discusses how article clustering can be helpful and why myFeedz is different from other similar web applications out there.
- Marco Casario thinks myFeedz is a smart move from Adobe, and we should go into Flex. (We’ll keep that in mind!)
- Ryan Stewart is wondering whether Adobe is becoming Googlesque. (We’re flattered by the comparison, but we’re not exactly aiming in that direction).
- Stephen Shankland from Webware offer an in-depth tour of the features, but wonders whether the automatic tag extraction really builds a relevant profile of interests.
- Robert Scoble publishes an interesting feature wishlist for a RSS reader. (Thanks, Robert!)
- Jeremiah Owyang offers his take on the ultimate RSS reader on his Web Strategy blog.
- Kim Cavanaugh thinks we should improve the article relevance algorithm. (We’re working on it.)
Keep it coming, guys! We love feedback - it’s what pushes us forward and makes us get out of bed in the morning. Oh, and speaking of feedback, if you’re the lazy kind, you can simply vote in the myFeedz survey.

Great job listening to the marketplace and joining the convo. A lot of folks on this list will be influencers in your market.
Just curious, is this an official Adobe blog? It’s not branded and is somewhat void of corporate speak.
Lastly, who’s writing these posts? I would love to have a name associated with it, even it’s the first name.

Hi Jeremiah,
Thank you for your comments. Yes, this is an official Adobe blog. It is maintained by the myFeedz team. We are Marius Zaharia and Adrian Tanase and we both work for Adobe.
Sincerely,
Marius
