Feed me

More than 100. That’s the number of feeds I’m following each day.
I’ve been selecting those veery carefully, & still I spend no less than 1h each day reading them. & I must say it is a delight.
Each day I repeat to myself how lucky I am to live in the Internet era. Seriously, being able to be in your pajamas & be reading fantastic thoughts, hilarious texts, or inspiring experiences from people all over the world, what can be more exciting??
Reading my rss feeds is an important part of my morning routine : I wake up, have a yummy breakfast & sit in the company of my warm tea mug to read what the web has best (or somewhere near) to offer.
Sometimes I’m feeling overwhelmed by all the content rushing in, but what if I skip some posts? not a big deal.
Anyway, you can’t imagine how much inspiration & motivation I get from all the websites I’m following. Want a glimpse of those, just go there or look at this blog’s sidebar…
& you, can you tell me about the blogs you are happy to read every morning / night / day?

I've been thinking about that a lot lately, how glad I am to live in this information age where I can connect with and learn from people all around the globe... I too am sometimes overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information available, but it is a wonderful thing, an experience very unique to the era we live in. Yay for the internet!
For me it is very much a morning routine as well though I select my feeds differently: I add everything I seem to like at first sight and after about a week I decide whether or not the blog is going to stay in my feedreader.
I wake up and drink my coffee while catching up on my reading too! It's so amazing to live in the era of the internet. My favorite part is being able to connect with people all over the world. It's a gift!
I don't follow much blogs myself, I'm glad you're using that shared items feature, gives me something to read... I should go blog-hunting one of these days.
@Profoundly Inarticulate : Yup, you're so right. =)
@Daylah : Good & clever technique, should definitely give it a try...
@Cyndi : It is really a gift & each day I realize it more! & yes, a bunch of great feeds plus a warm drink is a treat!
@Grungi Ankhfire : (Oh. Gosh. He commented!) Yes, you should go blog-hunting. But I hope you won't find too many feeds, because I'm pretty sure I'd want to read those too, haha.
