Ridiculous amounts of Simply too much Stuff

I've had a bloglines account for awhile now, maybe over a year. And like many new internet technologies, mine fell into disuse. Even though RSS readers save time, there is still too dang much to keep up with. For example, there are 174 new posts on the BBC World News site since I last logged in. Like I need my computer to tell me I'm not keeping up with the news. I guess I feel obligated to at least read all 174 headlines, and when I realize that's a waste of time, I avoid my bloglines like someone I drunkenly confessed my Buffy obsession to. Hmm, forget I said that...
