Shaking Up the Blogroll

Posted by andyparsons on January 26, 2010

This morning, in the latest chapter of my trying to find a suitable desktop RSS reader, I mistakenly removed an imprtant category, and all its content, from Google Reader. Argh. It’s gone, gone, gone, and I can’t remember the 75 blogs that were in it.

But that’s OK; it forced me to consider which ones were important. Those I read daily were top of mind and easy to find. Those with which I play pound-the-weasel of unread items are useless anyway.

I urge you to try this. On purpose. If you can recover your blogroll, it’s no fun.
