- Compares OPML files
- Finds RSS feeds that are common to the two files being compared
- Allows you to delete feeds that aren't of interest
- Save the merged file as a new OPML file, to use in your favorite Reader

- This is not a feed-reader; not even close. There are enough good ones out there
- Double-clicking on a feed, will show some snippets so you know what it is, but: this is not a feed-reader :)
- Does not reorg OPML's outline, most readers allow you to do that
- Has some basic drag-drop re-org features, but: this is primarily a Merge/Compare tool, not a re-org tool :)

- Prep work: A friend sends you his OPML file of interesting links
- Prep work: Save your own feedlist as an OPML file (Perhaps, save an extra back-up copy too!)
- Prep work: Save your pal's list as a file
- Run this OPML-compare tool (yes, the one on this site)
- Use File Open to open your 'main' (or 'base') OPML file
- Use File Merge to open the other OPML file
- The Icons indicate you which RSS feeds were only in the 'base', which were in both, and which were in the merged ones
- If there are some you do not like, Right-Click (or whatever you Apple guys do) and select 'Reject' from the context-menu
- If you make a mistake, same thing, but select 'Accept'
- Too many mistakes? Simple use File/Exit. No harm done
- Happy with the merged result? Use File/Save and specify the name for the merged OPML (anything marked rejected will be left out)
