Not sure how many people really use RSS feeds, I know I am a total addict (this is the only reason I always have a list of fun links on a Friday), mostly because you don't have to go out actually searching for "what's new" out there, it comes to you (as it's breaking), but also because it's like a mini archive, so I can graze my way back through time (when I have some on my hands) without fear that anything interesting has managed to slip by without my knowledge...the feed reader I tend to use (tried out Google reader but it's not quite as good) is Sharpreader, which sits politely in the tool bar, and whenever anything interesting happens it informs me with a small blue box (containing the headline) at the bottom right of my desktop (which vanishes a second later)...
So, and feel free to ignore me, but I thought I would share some of the feeds that I graze upon...(and of course, if you have any great feeds to share with me, then leave a comment)!

I've never got into the whole rss feed thing. I'm still stuck in the old ways of manual searching hehe ;)
Hey, it's not that tricky! :$) And there is something to be said for not having the world pushed at you all day long I guess... ;)
