Organizing My Feed Subscriptions
in Daily, Personal, Thought, Words / tags: feed, google, google reader, gtd, rss, yahoo!
I use RSS reader to follow updates from my favorite sites. When I subscribed for the first time, I just loved those sites. I found them useful. But, right now I am thinking of re-organizing my subscriptions. Even the feedreader — I use Google Reader — has ability to keep the headlines, I don’t think that I can follow them all. I tried, and I was failed.
I ask myself about those feeds:
- Do I need them? I mean, I really need to read those updates?
- If I do not subscribe to those feeds, will I get impact? I mean, my work, my job, etc.
- Do I need to subscribe to multiple feeds having similar contents?
- Can I get updates using other methods? For example, having combined feeds using Yahoo! Pipes or RSS Mixer so that I only need to read contents I really need?
Those are some reasons. Right now, I review my subscriptions. Will delete some.
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed go get the latest entry from your RSS reader. You can also have my contents delivered to your inbox.

I am using feedly.com
I think it’s more organized, and easy to read.
Sudah pernah coba?
