View Full Version : What feeds are in your reader?
Does anyone else use RSS feeds here much? Over the past year or so I've really started to build up a collection of feeds to keep an eye out on. Some technical, some otherwise. I've been relying on Google Reader more recently to handle them as it's quite useful to have a consistent source no matter where I am, rather than just maintaining a news reader at work. What feeds do you have subscribed?
Amongst my favourites:
xkcd (http://xkcd.com/): Almost always worthy of a giggle or two.
Photoshop Disasters (http://photoshopdisasters.blogspot.com/) Some just want to make you cringe. How do people think it's okay?
Vanilla Days (http://www.vanilladays.com/) Cool photographer who posts daily pictures. Wonder who it could be ;)
Of course tacked into that I've got the BBC News, a half dozen techie sources like Ars Technica and a few other random odds and sods that I like to keep a regular eye on.
Off the top of my head: xkcd, CAD, looking for group, Dee's photography, Pete's photography and a few blogs
Aw thanks Sam! So someone other than Daz is a fan then? ;D

I have 220 feeds. I wish Google allowed a public list like Bloglines does.
I don't even know how to use it !

That would be cool :)
Not sure if you're aware but you've got nearly 200 people subscribed to your daily photoblog on google reader alone.
I've got a fancy stats package on my site that tracks feed subscribers. Just last week I hit 600 subscribers :D Though its nothing compared to 'A daily dose of imagery' with over 10,000.
