Searching for feeds

If I ever felt the need to find more websites to check on each day it's great to know about these tools for searching for newsfeeds. Generally I prefer to rely on word of mouth or referrals from other sites I visit.

Topix.com was interesting in that you could narrow your search geographically. They are all quite easy to use but your search terms must be chosen carefully or you end up with either way too many hits to wade through or so few that you know you must be missing something.

I will likely stay with my very untechnical method of finding feeds which is to look for the orange square on a well-liked site. I find I generally wait a few weeks with a new site to see how often I find myself referring to it. If I keep going back then I will add it to my feeds. Although it is so easy to add a feed I may just add them and then delete the ones I don't like based on lack of use.
