wpsource vs wp-mag

I recently announced I’m working on several new projects, one of those being the recently put online wpsource.com. Interestingly enough just yesterday adii posted about a similar concept and Jeffro2pt0 posted about them both :)
I personally love a bit of “friendly” competition and will consider all feedback received. The fact wpsource is already up gives me a slight edge. Changing the layout’s and adding features is pretty trivial.

An interesting point Jeffro made was about consolidating several feeds into one. I thought about this but decided against it as a lot of blogs like to use feedburner to keep track of there RSS Subscriber count and probably wouldn’t be very happy if they saw a significant dip in direct RSS readers and it also plays a factor in a blogs worth if and when it comes to selling up.

So at the moment this is the area I would most like to gage site owners feedback. I’ll also be adding favicons shortly but I have another project I plan on announcing later that needs some tweaking before I publish the URL :)

    You also have one more advantage and thats not having the word, WORDPRESS in your domain name. I don’t know how adii pulled it off, but thats a real IFFY domain. Also, I’ve given some thought about this and if you or adii or any other site that aggregates content places ads on the site, I’ll be the first one to write about it in disgust as that would prove to be a very shady thing to do.
