It doesn't seem to have a way for me to add blogs that aren't on its short list of blog sites. Nor a simple way to just put in the URL of a blog, rather than using its search engine. And many of its RSS feeds are truncated, which makes them useless for placing into an ebook reader. (Not meaning to be whining; am commenting as I notice things. I'm trying to set up a feed to figure out how it works.)

Picked half a dozen blogs, including a couple on LJ. Mmmkay. Yes, it shows comment numbers. Now, how do I grab the feed and throw it into my PRS-505?

ETA Secondarilyy: how do I grab the *one* most recent post from each blog, rather than the several most recent from the busy blogs?
