Spreading blame around, yay! Here goes:

There ARE no links to the RSS feeds of these pages anywhere on them, so
of course Sage can't discover them. I have no idea whether that's the
bloggers' fault or their hosting company's, but I can't see how any feed
reader could work with this kind of setup.

Meaning that it works? My Firefox can discover an RSS 2.0 feed for this
one just fine. Have a look at the feed URL (Right click on the feed in
Sage, choose Properties):

http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/rss.php?u=traininghearts

http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/rss.php?u=twmcrm2001
http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/rss.php?u=aligirl
http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/rss.php?u=youngmommy

The way to get these into Sage is to open the URLs and then bookmark
them into the Sage folder.

ciao,
