3 of 23 things on a stick

RSS FEEDS: I've just started exploring this very powerful tool. People who love being in front of the computer screen are going to love RSS. It's a cool idea if you follow a lot of websites and blogs closely, but I don't. I can see it's useful, but I'm just not that addicted to instant updates on everything.

For practice, I opened a Google Reader account and I also picked a few RSS feeds to add to my 23 Things blog. But it seems to me that this Thing, RSS feeds, could be as big a time-eater (not necessarily a time-waster) as email. Still, I certainly wouldn't be willing to part with my email, and who knows? Maybe I'll be saying the same thing about my RSS feeds in another year or two!
