My google reader list is growing.

It started out with just a few news feeds and some other odds and ends. I deliberately kept it simple because I was in grad school and didn’t have time to peruse many articles each day. Also, I knew my weakness. If the articles were there, I would read them. Unfortunately, I was not getting graded for keeping up with my Google reader.

Now all that has changed. I’ve been deliberately expanding my subscriptions to fit my interests because I’m trying to use my feeds as motivators: if I see articles about a topic every day, I should be more likely to pursue my own activities in that area. Thus, I’ve subscribed to personal finance, cooking, and fitness feeds.

A few weeks ago I added Photoshop feeds. Those entries usually get starred for later use, since I rarely wish to take the time to actually do the tutorial right then. Today I added some Flash feeds. Yesterday it was interior design.

The problem is that as I add more feeds, I follow more links, add more feeds, repeat. And I star more entries because I “don’t have time to follow up on it now.” But will I ever?

There is so much wonderful information out there, and I want to touch it, read it, use it. It’s tantalizing.
