I have 1193 unread items in the Politics section of my feedreader. I have 1249 unread items in my "toys" section (BoingBoing, funny blogs like Jesus' General, etc.). The News section, with NYT and WaPo feeds (but not my local news feeds from Bay area and Kansas papers) has 2503 unread items. I…
One of the most hated practices on the Internet is the breaking of articles into pages. Jason Kottke swearingly rants against it here, and Mike Davidson denounces the practice here. I don't much like the practice either, especially when a short, pointless article is broken into four or more pages (…
As you may have noticed, we've been experimenting with a new posting format at CogDaily. Previously, we posted a "news" post every morning that included brief analysis of one news item followed by a set of "in other news" links to other news items from across the Web. But many readers complained…
I just learned of this great post from Southern Fried Science via a tweet from Southern Fried Scientist that was retweeted from Rick MacPherson (Malaria, Bedbugs, Sea Lice, and Sunsets). I mention this because my RSS reader is so full of unread posts that Twitter is serving me far better these…
I am afraid to even open my Google Reader these days - there must be hundreds of thousands of items....
I find your lack of dedication disturbing. Throwing away all those articles unread - do you know there are children starving for articles in China?
Waste not, want not.
234 mine says. Sb an a bunch of others. I have an excuse, however. I mean, not a job or other interfering stuff like that, but every so often Google Reader decides to lock me out. It once did it for weeks. Not browser related, I have no idea why. The header comes up, "Done" pops up at the bottom, but no feeds. Someone on some thread or other mentioned putting an 's' after the usual http, but that never worked for me either, until today. It did work, but slows it to a crawl on an already crappy dialup. And I can't seem to un-'s' it after I get in. I've also tricked it into letting me in by hitting the 'subscribe' button on any web page. Neither trick is reliable. I eventually went looking for another feed reader the last time I couldn't get in for days. Chose Bloglines more or less at random. I prefer GR, but still have Bloglines in the wings for those days I can't get in. That's why it's only up to, uh, 241 now. gotta go... rb
Mine just says 1000+....all the time. I don't know why I don't just go ahead and prune off all the stuff I don't really read. Probably for the same reason I never throw anything away.....
