It’s no secret we completely disagree regarding the recent discussions over the death of RSS and as a commitment to it, we’re starting a new series titled The OPML files.
The series will feature lists of the most respected and popular blogs & sites in various different categories, and to make things easier for you – we’ve done the hard work and include an OPML file for each list.
What is an OPML file? See here for full details, but all you really need to know is that its the file that RSS readers use when exporting and importing RSS feeds.
Today, we feel its appropriate to start with Web/Tech Blogs.
How did we compile each list? Frankly, research. For each industry the mechanism and sources are going to be different. For tech blogs for example, we’ve looked at traffic, Technorati, Digg, Techmeme, recommendations and other lists.
Ok, so lets get started:

Great intiative but 150!??!? Doesn’t really make it an “easy” list.
Great list, but it´ll make my head explode from information overload! Could you guys filter the OPML file with PostRank and upload the OPML with only “Best” posts? that would be very useful for everyone.
I assure that one day my blog will come in this list ! :D
