blo.gs sucks

I use blo.gs to track many of the sites I read and when they have updated. Those sites that ping blo.gs directly, are shown to me immediately. Those sites that ping weblogs.com (or several other places that accept update pings) are updated every hour. This has always worked very well for me. Unfortunately, blo.gs has been down a lot lately. I know I can't complain too much, since it is a free service, but it was a service I really enjoyed using.

I would prefer an actual news aggregator (which I am in the process of authoring one that doesn't suck but reading RDF is rather complicated when you are a perfectionist like me and want to do everything "right"), however, until I find one (or write one) that I like, I'm looking for a (temporary?) replacement service for blo.gs.

Any suggestions?

side note: Why doesn't Movable Type have a spell checker?
