Comments on: What's in Your Blog Reader? http://www.juvin.com/2008/09/20/whats-in-your-blog-reade/ Family of five living it up in Southern California. The glamour! The giltz! The laundry!

Will definitely check them out. :D My erratic, bingey blog reading consists of real-life friends first, then children's book news, and then photography. I also collect links to all kinds of entertaining and fascinating other blogs, by super cool people. (I read a <i>ton</i> of entries in that one Female Science Professor blog you once posted about on Facebook, for example!) But I rarely get to visit any of those non-RL, non-Ch Bks, non-photog blogs a second time. Adding them to my Google Reader is just like adding yet another movie title to my 300+ Netflix list, when the reality is I don't even watch one movie per three months. (Ditto adding anything to my 300+ "saved for later" items in my Amazon cart). The wishlist exists merely to make me feel better, like somehow I can eventually consume it all.
