I am also not a heavy RSS user and the reason is I don't want to be inundated or have to scan through tons of information that I am not interested in. To the best of my knowledge, when you subscribe to an RSS feed, you receive any changes to that site, or portion of site. If the site is an active forum, for example, this can be TMI (Too Much Information). So, while you say: > Yes. That's the idea. For example, if you were had a lot of news feeds, > and typed "iran" into filter area, the only headlines that would appear > would be those that had Iran somewhere in the title or body of the headline. What I would really like is to be able to have a preference that is *specific to each feed* I subscribe to, and be able to type in some filter words or phrases. If the word or phrase is in the headline or body of that feed, then notify or otherwise show me the headline. Otherwise, "automatically" and completely delete the headline item from the database or however you are storing these (I also don't need my HD being filled up with info I will never read). And, I don't want to have to be manually typing in filter words multiple times a day. This would remove my "resistance" to subscribing to feeds, knowing I can always filter a feed down "right at the door" to what I know I would be interested in from that feed and not have yet another flood of information to deal with. It would not bother me in the least to not see anything from a specific feed for days or weeks or more.
