I do follow Ars Technica's apple section. Like everyone else, I don't always have time to read the full article, but ones I do read are always good.

Hello, Infinite Loop reader here.

What's all this about big articles? Infinite Loop has mostly small news pieces similar to TUAW. They run the occasional long article, but not very often and they're in a different section.

TUAW and Infinite Loop cover much of the same stuff, but personally I prefer IL.

Most of the articles aren't that long, but a lot of the best ones are. When there is a new product or major announcement, Ars usually does a multi-page analysis of it. They are always excellent, but time-consuming to read.

True, the best ones are usually long, I normally set aside some time to read them, especially the OS X reviews.

I have been looking at my feeds the past couple of days and I noticed that I have been subscribed to Ars IL for some time, however I haven't been getting the articles coming through. I deleted and re-added the feed and all is well.

Todays articles weren't as bad as my memory had made them in terms of length, but as usual I just skipped over the titles and went to the iMac specs page myself anyway. Good to have had it pointed out again though so I can make sure I check them out regularly for headlines at least.

Oh well, at least he was honest. It looks like a pretty cool site, none-the-less.

The aggregator site is actually not bad in terms of content. Frank: if you can spruce up the design a little so it's less painful to read, I might come when I need a comprehensive set of headlines.

Thanks for the comments. I know it is not very pretty. We'll be upgrading. The back-end filtering is constantly being updated for accuracy. That's my goal: accuracy and total aggregation...
