Today is the 13th week of the Weekly Tech Blog Topic Series. Apparently I forgot last week. … Oh well.
If you’re confused about what exactly this is, go here to read the first post ever and the guidelines…
Ok, today’s Tech Blog Topic is:
How many RSS Feeds are you subscribed to?
36… too many. i've got 258 unreads at the moment. I'm going to clear out anything I haven't looked at in a week.
36 is pretty good.
28 feeds in 3 categories in Google reader. Wow, and I just did some pruning last month.
hehe.
24, no more, no less.
are you “dogmatic” about the number?
Hmmm…72…I think I need to do some pruning. There's no unreads, but often I just skim
23
and… where's 24?
131 but I need to do some "spring cleaning." I know some of those blogs have been abandoned. My feed reader (SharpReader) seems to be bugging out on my this morning too. A lot of "Error reading URL: Unable to connect to the remote server" message. Anyways, I digress…
sharpreader… huh. never used it…!
Yeah, I've used it for years, but I don't think the developer is updating/developing it anymore. What do you use John? – Paul
google reader exclusively… but i'm open to others… just havne't found any better…
Just realized that all the feeds showing a connection error are feedburner feeds. Anyone else having trouble getting updates from feedburner?

Usually between 40-50. Right now 47. Too many, the reading is often cursory and so many tends to make me more of a lurker than I would like to be.
lurker. that's a video game thing.
Good way of looking at it. Fat lurker.
138.
Like Christian, I need to trim some fat.
fat. boo.
Ah, but I read EVERY LAST feed, though!
26
Add and delete.
Thinking about deleting one or two right now.
like mine…?
Currently 68 and that was after some trimming . .
have a goal in mind? or that working?
126 – but many of those only publish once a week, or are daily comic strips, etc. Probably 40-50 that I really read.
Started at 127 a month ago and cut it to 50. I'm currently at 53, so I need to lose 3 of them to get back to my goal of only following 50.
good for you. i need to do the same.
13 wow, based on the above comments I'm just an amateur
I'd say that makes you the expert!
yeah. those guys are freaks…
How many feeds are you subscribed too?
194. my goal is to cap at 200… or that was my goal… i may have to change that.
how many feeds? Churchcrunch became my 23rd on Sunday. I have a good mix of tech, church, news and a few sports sites included too. Using Google's reader, I don't know how I did without rss feeds for so long.
SWEET! michael jordan baby.
44 on bloglines 10 on email 13 on google reader
you use two proggies?
yeah, getting rid of bloglines soon and consolidating.
122. I need to cut it down. So many people start blogging and stop. Also I don't know why I have multiple stuff like 2 blogs for the same sports team. Time for purging! I use google reader..it's the best one.
122. wow. purge……..
time to cut down?
feedburner is migrating to google.
Yeah, I just migrated the feeds for my own blogs into my Google account. That didn't affect the feeds I subscribe to in my feed reader though. Eventually later in the day I started getting updates from feedburner, so all is good now. – Paul
skimming in the new reading.
yes. in his underpants. that's me.
Now that is a picture that I do not burned into my memory. next topic, please, next topic.
goingggggggg.
Okay.
So I felt convicted.
97 feeds now.
puaha.
Don't laugh.
You could have made the cut!!
DOH!
I'm currently subscribed to 45 RSS feeds. It used to be 75+, but then I decided that a bunch of them needed to go.
I did the same thing on Facebook. I de-friended a bunch of people that I really didn't consider to be friends (a solid 150 or so, I think).
