Thing 20 - RSS Revisited

Now that I have done my delicious account the use of bloglines seems to make more sense. I can view bloblines from any computer. I have that RSS feed button on my computer and thought that was easier to subscribe to the feeds. But that limits it to that computer. Seems like a big duhhhhh! but that's my epiphany for the day. New benefits? Not really other than I like subscribing to the news (since I never watch it and go through life not knowing what is going on.) Am I checking regularly? Are you crazy? I can't get my things done because when I turn on my computer I automatically check my emails. And by the time I do that, I've wasted a half hour that I should have been working on my things. Once upon a time, when I had AOL, news popped up every time you logged in, and that was good in a way, that I saw the news then, but again it is something that distracts you from your main goal. So NO checking blogs or my RSS feeds are not a habit, nor is a habit I really want to develop. I like going through life not knowing what others are thinking.

Okay, only three more to go, but I must go stretch my legs. Now, I just hope I will come back in a few hours.
