I use NetNewsWire Pro ($25) on Mac which synchronizes with NewsGator online (I think FeedDemon does this too?). I have 193 individual blog feeds in NNW - I don't subscribe to aggregators because I like to be able to view an individual blog's posts. I have feeds grouped into about a dozen broad categories with a few uncategorized stragglers. Some groups I just briefly skim headlines, others I pay more attention to. Some of the stragglers are important feeds (like BART service advisories!). I check feeds about twice a days, flagging interesting sounding articles for when I have a bit more time. I go through flagged items every couple of days. To be fair, one thing in my favor is that I'm a speed reader with a semi-eidetic memory so I'm able to just "see" interesting phrases when I glance over a page. Even so, there are techniques that everyone can learn to improve there reading speed and observation skills which help with information management... -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 The most significant release in over 10 years.
