Acticity #1 -
I chose the google reader because I am in LOVE with all of the other google apps that I currently use. I love that I don't have to go out and find information, it comes and finds me. My only concern is that it can suck you in. I was subscribed to about 30 different feeds and I would get hundreds of new posts to read each day. That was WAY too many for me to keep up with. I now have a much better system that works for me. I have folders to organize where they go and that helps me tremendously. I have an Architecture folder with 5 subsriptions and a Geometry folder with another 8 subsrciptions. Even those can get a little overwhelming if I don't stay with it frequently. You just need to train yourself that not everything is going to be worth reading and you have to pick and choose.
