A blog readers wish...
Like many people, I find myself spending more and more time reading blogs. Frankly, I'm probably spending too much time reading, and not enough time writing on my own....
On any given blog, even those written by folks I respect, there's often too many posts that have little or no interest to me... whether its fatspam from Jason Calacanis..... (btw, Jason has a right to post whatever he wants, but that doesn't mean that I have to pretend to enjoy sifting through it.)
... or looking at pictures of deformed rabbits on Boing Boing. Boing Boing, in fact is a perfect example of what is both right and wrong about blogging. Just about every piece on there is interesting (on some level) creative and thought provoking. But on any given day, I may only be interested in only one or two of the DOZENS of posts on Boing Boing. And it takes time to sift through to find the stuff I like. Why can't my RSS feed only pull down posts from one or two of their writers? Why can't my feed be customized so I only receive feeds on topics that are of interest to me?
Perhaps I'm technologically challenged, but I can't see a way to customize the content on my RSS feed. It would seem fairly easy to do... any help out there?
