Mike Kowalchik's very cool project Grazr, a mini OPML browser and apparently much more soon, has been quietly raising funds and has now partnered with OPML geek Adam Green of Darwinian Web. Here's the Grazr announcement. I think this is great, as there is so much that can be done with this little tool already.
I use Grazr for my blogroll on my personal site, saving huge space with a more interesting, dynamic display of my favorite feeds live. I also add it to the end of interviews I do with people, providing a preview of an OPML file containing their feeds and other related feeds. Mathew Ingram of Toronto's Globe and Mail uses Grazr on his personal blog to preview the writings of participants in this month's conference in Canada about Web 2.0, Mesh. Lots of potential here, and I'm glad to see the project is getting support. Hopefully this won't be another cool tool that dies on the vine.
Here's an example of a Grazr implementation. Click around inside it, the left border will move you up a level.
