RSS world

I'm addicted to RSS feeds. Seriously, addicted. Over the course of the last 72 hours, I have read 667 items, starred 4 items and shared 4 items. I don't know why these little bastards are so enjoyable but I'm completely addicted. I think it has something to do with being on top of events, ideas, or gizmos but I'm not going to give these things up for anything.

Perhaps my addictive behaviors are reaching out to other areas (I am addicted to email and not drugs or alcohol like some might be thinking) but since Thursday when I discovered all the cool features that Google has given me for being a Gmail client, I feel I truly have jumped on the Google Net bandwagon. I think if they crashed and burned (not bloody likely) I would crash and burn with them. Where else can I check my calendar for the next 20 years, read the news and RSS feeds, then look at the photos that I have uploaded, update my blog and then email everyone? Yahoo doesn't even come close to the services offered from Google and for that I am thankful. The scary thing is how they monitor what I do on the Internet. They track my surfing patterns, my reading patterns and even look through my email to give me links to shit I just don't need. So for those who give two shits about my sharred RSS feeds, here is a link to my shared page.

And for those who don't know what an RSS feed is, why are you even surfing the web?
