Bloglines, the RSS tool owned by Ask, has released a new beta version of their feed aggregator. Gary from Ask.com has a basic product overview. Richard has an awesome in-depth review of the Bloglines product over on Read/WriteWeb.

Richard notes, "Bloglines Beta is the first stage of 'a complete redesign of the Bloglines service'. The new features include a new personalizeable Start Page (featuring drag and drop functionality to add feeds); 3 feed reading views (Quick View with headlines only, 3-Pane View for an email-like interface, and Full View for "the classic Bloglines page layout, updated"); Drag-and-drop feed management using Ajax; and a new Unread System to manage what to keep and what to ignore. Also upgraded are the 'Add Feeds' process and the 'Full View' option."

I love the fact that there are no default feeds, I don't have to delete 40 things I don't want just to start adding what I do. And where is the advertising, if none, then how do they generate revenue?

It "feels" much smoother than Google Reader. But can this new version bring back it's loyal base from years ago?

Here is my video review - 5 minutes - RSS, step inside please.
