Slimming down your feed list [Hack Your Day]
Sometimes a great feature hides in plain site from me. A great example is the trends link in Google Reader, which I have never checked out for some reason, but now that I did, I want to show you guys what it can do. Basically it’s a statistics factory for your RSS reading habits, which [...]
Get RSS in your instant messaging program [Hack Your Day]
I think that much productivity comes from merging two separate things you use into one. Using Outlook for managing email and tasks is more productive than using Outlook and Remember the Milk for example (not in all caes, but many).
One such example I found today is a way to get notified of news quickly in [...]

Get In The Groove With Google Reader (Windows Wednesday) [Tech Rest]
I love using Google Reader to manage my RSS feeds. There are some changes I’ve made that make it better for me. For those of you not familiar with RSS feeds, they are a way to subscribe to web pages so new information is sent to you as it appears. I’ve found that I don’t [...]
My RSS Feed Subscriptions [HD BizBlog 1.2]
I have had a couple of people ask which blogs and sites that I subscribe to in my Feed Reader, so I thought that I would share with you all. I use NewsGator to do my reading, and I have broken them up into groups based on days of the week. The following is the [...]

If you’ve haven’t been bowled over by the recent Apple announcement of an iPhone sans phone, you may have noticed that Google Reader now has search.
I’ll admit, I didn’t notice it. And I use Google Reader as my feed reader! But as soon as I read a post on it (say, these posts [...]
What’s your feed reading speed? [Matt's Idea Blog]
If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it. — Peter Drucker? [1], [2]
As a follow-up to Afraid to click? How to efficiently process your RSS feeds I decided to time a few of my RSS processing and organizing [3] sessions. I’ve included the results below, with average time spent/post in bold. (Note: See the [...]

I’ve made a change… [Setting Contexts]
I’ve changed my NewsReader from NewsFire to NetNewsWire. Again - using a newsreader has changed me from an instant-gratification girl to one that enjoys the anticipation.
What I love:
- using just the space bar, I can fly through my (137 at last count) feeds
- I can “clip” articles I want to save
- [...]
The Search for Meaning [Hidden Dragon BizBlog 1.2]
A review of Seth Godin’s e-book about the search for meaning online.
This e-book is mainly an exposition on using Blogs and RSS to create a new online experience, secondarily it is an “infomercial” for Godin’s Squidoo.com Lens Portal.
Everyone is using the Internets to find something, and “Search” has become a billion-dollar industry. However, when you [...]
