I just made another update to my VS Team System team bloggers list and, while I have no problem doing this, it occurred to me there should be a better way.
All but one of the blogs in the list come from blogs.msdn.com. If you take a look there, the left side lists a large number of Microsoft bloggers (currently 867.) Unfortunately, the list is currently sorted by number of posts. This is useful as a “high score“ table, encouraging bloggers to post more, but makes it very hard for people to find relevant blogs.
It would be fantastic if somebody (read “Microsoft“) could organize that list of bloggers according to teams/projects. Life would be much easier if I could import a prepared OPML listing of bloggers focused on the technologies I'm interested in. Having to cull through other peoples' blogs (Rob Caron is a great source for VSTS pointers, BTW) can get tedious, and that is just for VSTS bloggers - never mind Indigo, WSE, PAG, ASP.NET, ad infinitum.
Is there already something like this that I haven't seen? Is there work being done on .Text to support alternate sorting/grouping?
