I enjoy blogwalking, because there’s so much informations, quirks, opinions or blabbing that worth to read. But this post make me wonder whether I am reading and visiting too much blogs. There’s a pros and cons, of course. One of the advantage of visiting so many blogs or subscribing to their feeds is you have a lot of information and always keep updates of what happened in this world. Also it can be the source of inspiration.

The ultimate cons is time consumption. And the anger from your boss when he caught you slacking (you can always give reason : for research). Anyhow, it’s necessary to develop your effective and efficient ways to read or to visit blogs.

One way to deal with some of these blog-reading downsides would be to change how I organize my RSS feeds. Currently, they’re organized by topic — I have a set of feeds for “productivity”, another on “writing”, a third on “education”, and so on.There are a few topics I try to read at least partially every day, and some I only read when I get around to it. But maybe I should adopt a system I’ve seen some others use, categorizing by priority?

My current reader is set to daily, monthly, and blogger. How about you?
