It's really interesting to hear about how you're using opml, delicious'n'grazr.

If you could post again once the course starts about how your students are finding it, that'd be great:-)

One thing you could do might be to aggregate feeds from the students themselves (though this might not fit in with your course design?)

opmlmanager is the tool I tend to use too, that as you guessed, I may move to grazr 2.0.

In the meantime, you can always use the current grazr site to host separate opml feeds under one account (get a grazr account: http://grazr.com/register ). You can then add resources to the account via a Grazr bookmarklet...
