I was actually looking for something like this quite recently. I was looking for an article on a blog I follow, but couldn't remember which blog it was. If I could paste in the list of feeds I subscribe to and then search within those posts, I think that would work.

I wonder if you'd provide a way to give it a list of RSS feeds and search within the given list?

This is cool! With new feeds added in the future, I can imagine searching on such a tool instead of Google or Duckduckgo, especially for technical topics :)
soon there will be the possibility for the user to add the feeds he wants
The best RSS Search experience, but not on mobile!

Also, I just searched for cryptography, 90% of the results are job ads - is that usual?

Edit: Sorry, I realise I sound a bit caustic, but on mobile I couldn't even see the full search bar and the "Made by..." jumps up when the keyboard is open. The results look fine!

you are right, i'm working on it right now. Unfortunately I'm not very good with CSS :D
Where do you get the base set of RSS feeds? I couldn't find that in the README.
It would be great to have a place to discover new feed, so it's a great idea. I think the search weights need some tweaking though.

If I'm searching for "technology" I'd expect blogs that are about technology not some StackOverflow or Github jobs:

Yes I am trying to improve the search algorithm. Stay tuned!
Nice job! I love the UI.

thanks and congratulations to you too for your work
It would be cool if the service would have a rss crawler which searches the web for rss feeds and automatically adds this to the database.
yes thanks for the feedback but is not the purpose of the project. The idea is that the user will add the feeds to be imported. I will release this feature shortly
Hey! Do you think this can somehow be integrated with my rss-based social network? www.kalaksi.com :)
Cool idea! Would be a great feature if you could have an account and make it just index the blogs you read.
hello from now there is the possibility to add your own feeds to the import. Let me know
