Thanks!
I just updated it and now it has more than 2000 feeds. Tons of newspapers, magazines, and blogs. I'll post it here when I get home (at work now). You import it into Mobipocket Reader (will take a ton of time and you may have to import it more than once if it hangs... it won't re-import stuff already there) and then delete anything you don't want. The importing only has to be done once.

Something I found is that having tons of feeds drains the battery quickly as the Kindle indexes the files for the search function, so I'd keep it below 10 periodicals or maybe under 100 feeds.

I think I got pretty much all magazines and newspapers available at Amazon (except Reader's Digest which doesn't have full feeds) and tons of blogs. Hours and hours of copying and pasting

Updating over 2000 feeds makes Mobipocket Reader hang a lot and I have to keep restarting, so I'd suggest 200-300 feeds at a time for maximum performance (but would really suggest under 100-150 for the Kindle for the reason explained above). The cool thing is that you can select a particular publication's feeds and just update that one, so one day you might take Time and the next you might take Shanghai Daily.
