I should stop reading and start doing!
I just recently read Tyler Cruz post “Stop Reading… Start Doing!” and it really hit me that I’m just like that. I read far too many RSS feeds when I instead should write posts on my own blogs. Some days I end up just reading other peoples feeds instead of taking care of and maintain what I already have. And the fact that I read about the same thing on several blogs doesn’t make it easier! It is actually a waste of time and it feels horrible.
I usually tidy up my RSS reader once in a month, but I still have far too many. It’s the feeling that I might miss something great if I unsubscribe. Silly. I use Bloglines new beta version where you can view them in a “Quick View”, which means that you only see the titles of the posts, I thought that this would help me, and sure it has, but still, several days can go by without putting any effort on my own blogs! Not to forget, most of the time I have no imagination, not enough to create a blog post myself.
It’s like this is a common modern world problem. In the future we probably have to call the doctor: “Dear Docktor, I read too many RSS feeds, it is interfering with my normal life, what do I do?!“. Please, don’t tell me I’m the only one with this problem! :P
