A Minor New Year's Resolution
When I first started using Google Reader, I thought it would reduce the amount of time I spend "keeping up" on things. In principle, it can be that, but in practice, it became yet another thing for me to hover over and "check," joining the essential task of endlessly clicking the refresh button on Gmail and Haloscan.Be it resolved, therefore, that I will henceforth exclude Google Reader from my routine internet checks and limit its use to particular times (beginning with breakfast). To symbolize this resolution, I have removed the Google Reader tab from my standard browser setup, leaving only Gmail and Haloscan comments.
With any luck, this resolution will last until this afternoon.
