Curving Addiction to Information
Bloglines (RSS Reader) is my window to the world. Six months ago, I grabbed all of Jonathan Snook’s feeds from his public bloglines account. That gave me about 19,000 articles to read. In 6 months time, I read all the new articles as well as a backlog of 8,000 articles. I am now down to 11,000 articles. It feels like for the last 6 months I have ate way too much brain food each day. My mind gets full of information and I slow down when producing.
This information addiction manafests itself in on my delicious account . Here you can see a result of this maddness. In a few months time of normal every-day use of delicious I have over 550 bookmarks in my account. 550 is a lot of bookmarks to accumulate in a short period of time.
So now it is time to slow down the intake of information and focus on producing. I hope to have a lot of great work accomplished in the next few months.
