I'm always a bit nervous when fiddling with a new automation tool - wpautoblog is simple and reliable, but low on versatility and controlability.

Is feedwordpress better? It has more possible settings - and it looks like it can post feeds to your drafts. so you can improve them and have a stockpile for hand posting.

It seems odd to have it work in two parts, tho, and to have one of the apparently critical controls be reached by using a seperate url invocation of the update-feeds.php.

Any feedwordpress fans want to tell me what it;s good features are?

I use it -- not sure I can be called a fan, it was simply the first thing I found that worked.

So far it seems ok to me, the minor issues I have with it are probably feed issues basically. I like the "plugin to a plugin" thing it does so I can add additional functionality.

The update-feeds.php thing is ok, I mean I'm going to call it via a cron job. It's a bit strange not to include a link to it from the admin panel though.
