Bloginati gathers up the RSS feeds for all the MMO developer blogs, it looks like. Shorter than signing them up in a feedreader, I suppose.

Alas, it only grabs the gaming category from here. Which means you miss out on the awesome Sunday Poem I posted yesterday. Really. Go read it. 😉

  1. I may change it to just pull all the feed data from each website, because about 1/3rd of them didn’t seem to work with categories in the feed. For the sake of “balance,” I should probably just let every random thing any of us says show up on the site. 😉

This is fun: watching the growing panic on the World of Warcraft forums as the world (of warcraft) anxiously awaits delivery of The Burning Crusade.
