RSS Watch

I know you have all been waiting for this post for a long time. It’s another fascinating look at my RSS feeds…

New- recently added

  • http://blog.pmarca.com - This is the blog to read right now. You can’t miss it b/c everyone is linking to it. Even if they weren’t, it would be worth checking out.
  • Hot Cluster- Added today. It’s about utility computing and it’s applications
  • Amazon Web Services Blog- I’m am kinda obsessed with learning about EC2 right now
  • UMPC Portal- I started reading these guys every day to keep up with Computex news, it’s good enough to keep around
  • Marshall Kirkpatrick links- It’s his link blog and the link’s to his blog posts. Pretty cool so far

Hot- feeds I have really been liking lately

  • http://blog.pmarca.com- wow- look at these numbers… best blog launch, ever?
  • Arghyle Seeking Alpha Select- Yahoo Pipes finally fixed their formatting issues so I can read a number of great feeds from Seeking Alpha rolled into one feed.
  • Valleywag- It’s so wrong in so many ways, but I can’t stop reading. It’s fascinating how they just say whatever they want because of anonymous sources that may or may not exist. I think some sort of implosion is imminent… They caught Scoble’s attention yesterday…
  • Consumerist- this blog is turning out to be one of the best sites on the internet. They possibly saved my vision by alerting me to a defect with my contact lens solution (my doctor didn’t bother to call), they offer a lot of advice to people concerning the products/services we use everyday, and they are an incredible resource for consumers who often have no other place to turn to. A lot of what they post is the worst case scenario that happens to one person, but it’s great that these things are out in the open. And their “confessions of a [insert company] rep are fantastic.

Not- ones that have not been great and/or I have been thinking of dropping

  • Gigaom Network- This is Gigaom, Webworker Daily, NewTeeVee and Found+Read. I like WWD, but they have been off their game lately. As for the other ones- Found+Read is turning out to be another middle-of-the-road site (like GigaGamez) and Gigaom is losing it’s edge as well. NewTeeVee may end up being the standout here as far as unique and original content, but you have to be really interested in online video to get the most out of it.

Dropped- not longer subscribed to

  • http://chris.pirillo.com/- I gave it a shot for a few weeks, and there are gems here and there, but most of the posts were just not for me…

From Google Trends:

From your 126 subscriptions, over the last 30 days you read 19,636 items, starred 9 items, and shared 1 items.
