The Great RSS Feed Share
I mentioned that I put my RSS Feed aside a couple months ago in a play to reduce the load on my pretty depressed Winter brain - I gave it a clean up in early Dec and haven't opened it since. Now I'm gonna go through the... 631 items that'll accrued and share the experience, partly to give back and partly to make sure I actually read it rather than just hitting "Mark all as read."
Some I'll read and share, some I'll save for later (and share), some are interesting to me but not something I'd make a post to share.
Most I'll skip at first glance. It's a brutal world!
I'm delaying starting.
Right, lets go.

And that's that!
A big learning is that the number got huge because I follow some news sites on my RSS that absolutely spam during holiday periods. They're getting binned.
I also follow some webcomics that I much prefer binging compared to reading weekly, so I'll take them off and figure something else out.
I skipped a lot of weekly/monthly/annual summary posts that I enjoyed, because it didn't feel in the spirit - they'd have made up an easy 1/3 of the list.
Overall, I enjoyed this! Took my back to when I was starting out this whole website thing. Hopefully it helps me kick the habit back into play.
