Feature request: display no. of items per feed as per Bloglines etc.

Hi,

I found feedshow after becoming very frustrated with Bloglines because they are very poor at answering support questions and for some reason all my feeds are auto-updating to all read every five minutes - very annoying.

Anyway feedshow looks like an excellent alternative except for a couple of things. I really need to see how many items  are unread on a feed by feed basis so I can prioritise which feeds I read first. I know in a previous reply you were concerned about performance (I assume you mean on an individual basis and not as a whole) if you added this but perhaps you could consider making it an optional feature - I could live with a slow down if I could get this feature added.

Also I could not find the ability to save or mark particular items in a feed to keep. Perhaps you could add something like this as well as sometimes I don't have time to read a particular article but would like to save it for later.

Anyway I think feedshow has great promise and I hope you continue to build up its feature set.

Thanks a lot,

Matthew.

Thanks for your comment,

For the "how many items  are unread on a feed by feed basis" feature I have to think about it, but this is really a (server) performance issue. May be it will be available in a version 2 (v1 has to be finalized first!).

For the 2nd point the quick anwser could be:
you can use the "mail" feature for that. This way you can save posts in your mailbox (you can save those indefinitly).

These answers may not the ones you expected, but I try to keep FeedShow fast and scalable (with reasonnable HW resources). This drives some design choices...
