Toluu is a utility that makes it easy to discover the feeds your friends read and find your new favorite feed. You import your feeds and then your friends can easily see what you actually read. You can also find others who have similar tastes in feeds as you do and discover feeds you may find interesting. It is quite simple.

Why would I use this?
We built Toluu because we knew that in our small group of geeky friends each of us had a couple feeds the others in the group would enjoy, we just didn’t know which ones! We didn’t want to be the guy who recommended a feed someone else already had, or worse, assume that someone already had that feed and never mention it. Toluu makes it less awkward to find out what your friends read and enjoy.

Is Toluu a feed reader?
No. We think there are dozens of fantastic feed readers out there right now and we know there are more to come. We like using our feed reader of choice and we bet you like your feed reader too. We see Toluu as a thin service that sits above your feed reader. A new way to ‘feed’ your feed reader (sorry for the pun). We do have a feed page, but it is truncated and is intended to serve as a taste of the feed, a quick way to determine if you are actually interested.
