Turns out all the information-overload doomsday prophecies were correct. I spend a lot of my time getting “updates” on RSS feeds that add no value to my day. Again I repeat the plea: someone find a way to actually cut the crap out of it. Netflix: offer an RSS feed of the new releases that actually had some theatrical release. (I will no longer read that seasons of TV shows can now be placed in my queue.) I don’t need all Slashdot news, just the really important Slashdot news. Give me an option. I don’t need it hand filtered and gift-wrapped, I just need a whole lot less of it.
So, subscribed feeds: you’re on alert. I’m unsubbing anything that I don’t find vital. Nobody needs to track that much information. At least, I don’t.
