sooo....RSS feeds, eh?

I went to Google Reader and did the RSS thingie. I must say it was a little intimidating at first-lots to look at on the screen and lots of buttons that do all sorts of things. It did confirm my suspicions that there are all sorts of things that I wasn't even aware of exsisting out there. I liked the Reader and of course had to subscribe to the celebrity gossip only for research purposes. My concern is that one could spend vast amounts of time reading STUFF on the internet and the Reader may put it all in one place but it doesn't actually save much time. Now I'm wanting to read everything I subscribed to on the Reader but I don't need to read any of it except the blogs of my fellow testers. Just when I had my People magazine addiction stemed now I gots me the Google Reader. If it's there to read, I will read it...got to learn to LOOK AWAY. This was a good learning experience but I'm not sure if I will keep up with my feeds b/c it seems like one more way to spend time on the internet and I don't have a computer at home so I would be doing it at work. Not good. Enjoyed reading the blogs of Deb and Oreocat! Over all, good to know this stuff and be able to use it so yet another thing conquered (sort of) by the 23 Things training.
