Feeds ....

I know that one can set up a feed, but is there a place where you can check to see if somebody has already done that, first?

thanks!

When you put in the feed URL, it'll tell you if someone's already created a feed for that URL -- though you can still end up with duplicates when a blog (or whatever) has feeds in multiple formats.

If you have a good idea what title someone would have given it, you can type it in directly to see if it exists; all Dreamwidth feeds come in the format http://title-feed.dreamwidth.org/ , e.g. xkcd_feed.

You could also check the grand list of the 1000 most popular feeds (which currently goes down to feeds with only two subscribers, so it's probably still pretty comprehensive):

Oh, dear. I am FASCINATED by the descriptions of the 901-1000th most popular feeds.

I used to really enjoy Fugly Horse of the Day, but then she got really into hating on fat people. I don't know if she still does it, but it's why I stopped reading.

Bad Money Advice is quite interesting :)
