The only issue with the current aggregators is that they are not restricted - or even exhaustive - to the code/coder related blogs. This is arguably something that could be added to one or the other of them (increasing the number of blogs subscribed and making sure there is a 'code' tag filter) Ton's point of providing a blog to coders who currently don't have/ don't want to maintain their own, is a valid one.
