Hey Jamie - it'd be great if adding a subscription was a little more intelligent re: RSS url discovery. For example, I initially entered `daringfireball.net` and got a URL misformatted error. I subsequently tried prepending http:// - when really I needed to include a fully qualified path to the feed in the first place.

Otherwise, happy to import from Reader and check this out. I like that it feels light and easy to use.

You should be able to enter a bare url. I looked into it and daringfireball.net doesn't provide a rel="alternate" for their rss feed so my little feed discovery ditty won't work for them.

They do have though, so you might want to check for that as well.

Interesting - yeah, I picked it to test simply because I figure whatever Gruber is doing is probably a good base line test case.
