Confession: “My Life As An RSS Junkie” – Not Me!

This is a must read! Kirk Biglione over at MediaLoper admits that he is an RSS junkie. Here is his opening statement, “Like most addictions my problem started as innocent experimentation. I began dabbling in RSS years ago when it was still a relatively new technology. I told myself that it was a better way to keep up with the news. I rationalized that I’d save hours every day by using RSS to take a more focused approach to online reading and research. A few minutes with my feed reader was supposed to be like an hour or more of surfing the hundreds of the websites that I try to keep up with on a regular basis.

Well, that’s the way it was supposed to be. How was I to know that RSS would turn into the pervasive and addictive social menace that it’s become today? ”

He then gives a humorous review of several readers, none of which seems to exactly fill his voracious ‘need for feeds’.

I can relate! Can you?

    Funny, Chris. But it really does nearly become a habit, doesn’t it?
