It shows the categorization of the incoming information. Take a look for yourself and feel free to use it if it is useful for you too: http://www.flickr.com/photos/oandreas/390072640/ Dear Jay,

In particular, I loved that she reads her family's blogs - clearly this saves a lot more time than actually doing something like having dinner with them. I quit reading all blogs back in 2004 for 4 months and never went back to reading them regularly again. I found nothing changed in my life, except I had more time. In particular I noticed a couple of things - There is really nothing on a blog I need today that really can't wait until I need to Google it. And most writers are, well, not writers.(Sort of like most people who put up web pages back in the 90's weren't really web developers). Great for families, friends, and people with too much time on their hands trying to be "busy". Think I'll try to meet Gina for coffee sometime I was amused by your posting of Gina’s posting.

That way I am able to read them according to their importance. I explained that here too: http://itligenz.twoday.net/stories/3100351/ Doing it that way is more practical in my point of view since I am able to have a variety of parallel categorisation systems (importance, subject, posting frequency, ...). Best wishes Andreas Dear Jay,

I use a similar method but all within one newsreader by tagging the feeds. That way I am able to read them according to their importance.

I explained that here too:

http://itligenz.twoday.net/stories/3100351/

Doing it that way is more practical in my point of view since I am able to have a variety of parallel categorisation systems (importance, subject, posting frequency, …).

Best wishes

Andreas
