Strategies to clean up your rss feed subscriptions - Readers Sound Off (Download Squad)

Feb 26th 2007 1:08PM I just tackled this on my blog at http://www.the8thsign.com/2007/02/21/google-trends-and-rss-revisited/.

One of the best things I did was delete feeds that I would goto the webpages anyways. The biggest one of these was digg.com. After reading the article in my rss reader, I would goto the site to digg the article anyways. So I deleted the feed and now just visit digg.com daily. Since digg's feed was high traffic, that right off the bat saved me alot of reading.

My basic strategy was to look at the high traffic feeds first and see what I could consolidate. If you like gadget news but just really want to keep up to date on the important news, do you really need both engadget and gizmodo? Anything important will be covered by both so its safe to delete one. One other thing I did that was already mentioned was to delete any feeds that were just headlines.
