There is also http://www.djangoproject.com/community/ , the official aggregator.

this was apparently made as another option to the official aggregator. while its slightly easier to read, it looks nearly identical, and offers no new functionality to really make it worth switching -- especially for someone who reads the official aggregator in a feed reader.

One important addition that you can make is to add popularity metric to each post so that readers can segregate popular posts vs non popular posts.

One such thought of adding popular metric is:

1)Track the number of shares happening for that post in twitter,delicious,Google Reader (via Friendfeed API).

Aggregators are fun. Here's one I made for Drupal:

http://drupalfire.com/

I've found that people visit the site once, subscribe to the RSS, and don't come back.

maybe they're happy just reading the RSS?

That's why you should insert ads into the RSS! ¬_¬

The dates shown for the blog posts are incorrect. They all say September 20, 2009, when in fact the underlying dates go back to 2008. It looks more like the time at which it was imported. It should be displaying the pubDate from the feeds.
