RSS feed oblivion - I have neglected to maintain my RSS feed collection over the nearly 20 years I've been using feed readers. I have so many feeds that were at some stage interesting but have either disapeared or become uninteresting. I find that I rarely open my RSS reader these days. I miss how it used to be.
I'm thinking of deleting virtually all the feeds and start fresh. What I'd like is a manageable amount of news sources, both old media and new media publications, as well as a collection of feeds from bloggers that are doing interesting things and publish at least several times per week. I want to be connected to folks that are doing cool things, and writting about it, in the areas that I am interested in.
But deleting everything is very scary indeed. #
Banality of local intimidation - People driving past on motorbikes while talking on their mobile phone that just so happen to say "you learn" as they pass me are currently trending. It follows quite an anger goading heavy day, so not much of a suprise. Alk the same, rather unpleasant. #
Today’s links:
Wifi without internet on a Southwest flight - Writeup from James Vaughan of how to still have fun when your airplane wifi connection is lacking internet connectivity. Fun article though some code snippets would have been useful, especially around how he did the graphs. jamesbvaughan.com #
