How many Scobleizer’s are there?!
Why is it that I’ve got 6 folders in NewsGator for Scoble? They’re all for the same feed yet because Scoble has been changing the title of his feed lately, NewsGator and it’s Automatic Folder Creation based on feed title doesn’t realize it’s the same feed and decides to make a new folder. What a PITA.
I keep on clicking on the wrong folder and only realize which is the newest after the fact. It’s nice to know he’s “Celebrating the Geek lifestyle“ and that he’s a “Geek Aggregator” and he’s living “A Geek’s Life” and we all know he’s the “scobleizer” so stating that it’s the “Scobleizer Weblog” is a bit obvious, I’m pretty sure we’ve all realized he’s a “Microsoft Geek Blogger“ too.
It’s fine and dandy changing the title and such or changing the description of the blog, but why should that mean breaking the Automatic Folders in NewsGator

I’m sorry about that. I’ve also pointed this out to Greg Reinacker, the guy who writes NewsGator.

Could you not edit the individual subscription for Roberts blog, and set to always go into a specific folder?
I’ve done it to several blogs where I wanted the folder name to be something more descriptive than that blog title.

Yep, I did just before I wrote the little rant but so far his blog is still the only one I’ve had to do this on… Hopefully I won’t have to with others.
