Is there anyway to browse for anymore feeds without having to manuelly type in each long address?
As i indicated it depends on the target site. If the url you enter exposes rss links, then you can use the lookup button, else you have to manually enter the exact feed url. A more advanced lookup feature will be implemented soon.

Maybe include an option to hide widget sizes not used to unclutter the widgets menu?
Not sure how to do that but i will look into it. I didn't realize the menu was clutttered because on my device widgets are grouped by widget type (i'm using cyanogen 6.1.1).

New version is great after the critical bug fix. Hopefully next will bring more features like Google Reader support. Oh and I think its about time for you to go commercial with premium version, the widget is already the best there is for Android.
Few minor requests:
Optional 1 px border around thumbnail with customizable color.
Site favicon as bullet point before title, optionally, off by default.
also please implement Google Feed Discovery API, its separate API for discovering RSS feed based on a website or search query.
example: search "Engadget" to get Engadget RSS feeds.
Thanks for your continuous support and all your suggestions
I will look into the 1px border. I'm not sure how to do it without more dynamic layouts, but this may be possible after all: Android Aganda Widget exposes a lot of customization options and runs against LP. I can't imagine all those options being statically hard-coded (but i'm may be wrong), so i asked on android-launcher-plus site (code.google) if this was indeed possible (i'm still waiting for an answer).
Thanks for suggesting Google Feed Discovery. I was thinking about api.microrss for feed search and lookup. Maybe i can integrate both.
Favicons are on the todo list (with a not so high priority, though).

The widget install fail under zeam and LP under the tablet folio 100.
The process is killed directly, no preferences window. The widget is not visible after the process failed but sometimes when navigating on screen i got a pop up saying that the process failed ( again ! ).
edit : looking at the logs
DatabaseHelper:59
unable to get provider ... NewsProvider
I guess this also happens when run directly from the app drawer, right? Can you send me the logs, so that i can investigate a little bit. Also does the widget also fail with your desire, or does this only happen with the folio 100? Thanks for reporting this issue.
Thank you all for feedback and your suggestions. Please also note that I will take 3 weeks of vacation in a few days, and thus won't be able to reply until mid-january.
