I would assume as you add more feeds to your profile, either by OPML or manually, you would have more diversity in recommendations. I've seen folks upload hundreds and have already added a handful myself. If any readers would like invites, please let me know at louisgray@mac.com, and I will set you up with one.

Louis is correct, as you add more feeds to your Toluu account, the system gets smarter about which other feeds may be of interest to you and then we can also start matching you with others on the site whom you share similar tastes in feeds. This matching system is getting smarter every feed and every user added to the system, and this is how you can break out from just your close circle of friends into discovering even more new feeds and people. I also think there are many gems of feeds to be found in the 15-25% difference in feeds between you and a friend. The goal is not to add every feed you find, but rather to find those feeds you will actually stick with, and we think that seeing what other users actual subscribe to and read day-in and day-out is the best way to find these quality feeds.
