Bye bye excerpts.

  • Article

Sorry, I'm bringing up an old chestnut again.

Dave Slusher has reminded me of something I must do if I'm to keep my sanity:

"It is done. I no longer follow any more RSS feeds that excerpt their content. The minimum ante to the game of my attention is having the full text in there. Life is too short and my time is too precious for otherwise."

I need to cull. I've got 450+ RSS feeds I'm subscribed to and have overreached the limits of my attention bandwidth.

I don't care how good the writer or how 'must read' the feed is, it will be culled - no full text, no attention from me. If the post is good enough it'll get pointed to by another.

Bye bye excerpts.
