And one of the biggest problems I have is that I know I could probably learn a lot more if I had time to spend reading articles and testing things out. But I've got a lot of things on my plate, and the time I spend on my blogs usually just ends up being the time I spend posting.

Unless blogging is our #1 focus, not just an additional traffic feed and/or labor of love, most of us don't really have the time to read or test etc. Wordpress is a very powerful tool and it has capabilities that most of us really don't utilize to the fullest extent, speaking for myself here, mainly becuase I find that the "faqs" written are not explained very well and are truely cumbersome.
That's why something that is an article like "feeds" -- a brief explaination on why/what and then a Step 1/Step 2/Step 3 guide to setting them up.. etc.. would be very helpful.
BTW.. Walrus..your blogging tools page was/is extremely helpful. Kudos!!
and Grandmascrotum's blog does rock!!
