Exocortex & Newsfeeds
Today is the first day I'm using my exocortex as my newsfeed reader. So far I'm pretty pleased, although I have a couple of tweaks I want to make to the software. Already this is proving to be an improvement.
The biggest advantage is that I can access my feeds from work and home and spread the time I spend reading them out more evenly over the day.
Additionally, the exocortex keeps all my feeds, indefinitely, allowing me to search back to find articles I read in the past.
I need to make some changes to have it display each feed item's source and to allow variable time increments between feed updates on a per-feed basis. (Google news updates its stories too frequently and needs to be checked less often to keep the volume manageable.)
I'm really looking forward to Monday morning when I will no longer be greeted with 400+ unread feed items.
