Well, I finally did it using google reader. Most of my problems were mechanical- the computer I was working on wasn't displaying the entire screen. But I have 4 feeds and figure I will leave it at that. As they say in ultrarunning, the journey is 10% physical and 90% mental. I've got the physical done, but darned if I can get past the mental.
There is already too much stuff demanding my attention anyway, so why would I want more thrown at me? I figure if I really need info I can always google. Also, many of the sites I use personnally don't have feeds anyway.
On a similar note, I liberated myself from Facebook. Yes! I have enough friends. Our club is switching to wordpress with our own personal site which I like much better.
I did explore the blog search tools and enjoyed browsing the google blog search. Especially since it was on library time! I can see myself spending more time at the Top 25 Librarian Blogs. Basically, the idea of searching for blogs on a particular topic was an eye-opener for me and I can see myself using these tools. I guess the ultimate difference is the fact that I can choose the information when I need it rather than being bombarded.
