I’ve been using NewsGator Online recently rather than Bloglines and I missed the added feature of keyboard shortcuts for navigation until tonight — whoa! I really like this a lot and immediately moved back… well sort of as NewsGator does not seem to have an export function — not cool.
NG is a bit more up to date than BL, but I am mainly back after some effort. I was just reorganizing things from a massive (well over 600) list of feeds in folders to a few key folders which I want to be sure and track daily.
Actually there is a way to get your OPML file out of NewsGator. I was having the same problem and someone pointed out how to do it on a comment on this post:

Thanks for the pointer… that seems ridiculously complicated.
I just rebuilt my changes in Bloglines and have not looked back. Bloglines has a superior bookmarklet as well as considerably better UI – even before the kick-ass keyboard shotrcuts.
I was using NG as a stopgap for when NetNewsWire became sync enabled, but I really just like Bloglines… I need true IMAP-like sync and web based reading is the only way to get that today between my various machines and locations.
What shortcuts?
