Given I've been name checked I'll respond :-)

I believe the JavaFX Community site was automated - it basically 
aggregated a number of blogs regardless of the individual blog posts 
relevance. The challenge was the upfront discovery of relevant websites 
and adding them to the aggregator. I am a little more discerning on my 
website (either jonathangiles.net or fxexperience.com), but I try not to 
exclude anything if there is some relevance.

I guess the question becomes: what do people want? An RSS aggregator 
from a curated list of authors (where there will invariably be some 
irrelevant 'noise'), or something else?

I am happy to help where I can.
