Lenses? - Some things aren't as convenient as black and white. To deal with continuums, we have created Lenses. Lenses are a way to view a feed with a given filter. How accurate is this feed? What political leaning is this feed? Is it updated often? With Lenses, you can find out how other users view a feed.

Tags? - Tags are simply another name for categories, except you add and define them. Instead of forcing a site or feed into a category, you can makeup and create your own categories. This way categories are always current to the latest trends in technology, culture and news.

Feeds? - A feed is simply a news or blog feed from a web site. The web site can be a blog, a news site, sports site, just about anything that offers one. They are also called rss feeds.

Apostrophe in Feed Turns into Question Mark - If you create the content of your feed in a word processor and then copy it over to your blogging software then you may notice that your apostrophes turn into question marks.
