The Moth - my blog subscriptions (original) (raw)

Recently I trimmed down the number of blogs I subscribe to and will do that again over the next couple of weeks. It came to the point where there were always 3-5 thousand unread items in my aggregator... I could never catch up!

So on my quest to be more selective I faced the dilemma of what I do with group blogs. The same goes for aggregate blogs. (discussion for the difference between the two here)

Current plan is to split the group/aggregated feeds from the direct ones (i.e from the ones where a single person is blogging.. allegedly :-).

Goal will be to keep enough direct subscriptions so that by the end of each week I can say "I've caught up with all of them". Who knows, I might bring back my BLOTW feature (BLOTW 2004 and BLOTW 2005). Will share my OPML when I am done with the trimming...
