Thing #5... at last

Man, I have struggled with getting this one done. It probably has to do with the fact that I keep chasing threads and getting hooked on all the different stories I can read about. This RSS stuff is positively addicitng! I now understand how my son and other members of his generation can spend so much time on their computers. I have listened to podcasts on the NPR site about a new movie following the progress of the first Projesct Runway winner. I have read about 2o things to learn from President Obama's first 30 days in office and how they can apply to school organizations. The dizzying pace really can eat up my time so I'm going to have to put myself on some kind of reading allowance...at least as far as the RSS. I don't seem to have that problem putting a book down., but then a book doesn't lure me in all directions!

  1. I know what you mean. Every post leads you somewhere else that is so interesting. Sometimes I have to just mark everything as read and start over!

  2. I've been doing a lot of that lately....I read one or two posts , then just scroll back to the top and mark as read. I think it's a survival instinct when my brain is full.

  3. I've had the same issues with this assignment. I've found some really interesting and thought provoking items, but I forget how I found them. I'm just glad I know how to subscribe now so that I have them in my Google Reader. It is mind boggling how much information is out there in cyberspace! Sifting through it can be overwhelming, but it is exciting, also.
