I watched the latest Epic-Fu at SXSW asking people what they thought was the “Fu of the week” (or their best web product). One of the Rocketboomers said Bloglines as they read thousands of blogs a day.
Then it hit me, where have all the blogs I used to read go?
Last year I switched from Firefox extension Sage as my feed reader, and jumped over to Netvibes so then I could read my blogs anywhere, as well as tap into other social services I use regularly like Facebook. I made my Netvibes pages so then I didn’t have to scroll around much, and be overwhelmed by information. Unfortunately, that meant cutting some blogs.
I switched to Bloglines Beta and, well, it’s better (not perfect though, perhaps the buggiest Beta I’ve been in) and I found an old OPML export (Netvibes OPML export doesn’t work). And well, now I can see blogs that I haven’t read and read them.
To be honest, I don’t think I get a full spectrum of blogs, I certainly don’t have many on my list that I’d like to read. Usually through-out my day I stumble on about four or so blogs but read an article and move on. I’ll try and make an effort, add any blog I stumble upon to my Bloglines, give it a week and see how it goes, at least for a little while or until I get overwhelmed.
Any suggestions welcome.
