This week's 23 Things challenge has revolved around current awareness and RSS feeds. I have already begun receiving email notifications of various blogs I am following, and am very aware that this flow of information is only going to increase - probably exponentially - as I continue. As I don't really want my inbox to be overwhelmed with these things I've decided to receive them via a feed reader instead. This sounds rather technical and off putting, but it actually isn't. I've opted to use Feedly as it's popular and attractive (how shallow I am!) - and seems quite straightforward to use. As a result I can organise my various feeds into particular categories (for example 23 Things, general Web 2.0, and my subject liaison areas), and easily see what I have and haven't yet read. All good so far!
