I subscribe to a lot, but use sage with different folders. this way when im board i just go to the ‘Random People’ blog folder and pick out of the hat.
Just checked - an even hundred, categorized into different folders like marketing, writing, church leadership, kid lit, creative, etc. I don’t keep up with them all, nor do I try to. I think of them as knowledge pools that are waiting for me when I’m ready for them.
0 subscriptions…i go the old fashion surfing route from my own blogroll and then if something on those sites looks interesting i check it out from there…
35, but I’ve been adding as I find new ones through the Ragamuffin challenge or anything to do with church planting. I found you on Mark Bjorlos and then again on Ragamuffin’s!
BUT - have them categorized: graphic design blogs, religion blogs, crafty blogs, friends etc, frugal blogs… so I can read just what I am in the mood for. I can just mark all as read in that category if I feel like it.
370. I’m not sure all of them are still active. And I certainly don’t read them all everyday. I have my favorites, I have my book blogs, and then I have the ones I haven’t gotten rid of yet, and then the ones I read when something catches my eye.
33. It got up around 300 and for a long time was over 120. Truth is any more than 40 or so and I start skimming too heavily. The bloggers I read are usually linking and conversing widely, so if there is something good out, I’ll still get a lead on it eventually.
that is a ‘fluid’ number as I always seem to be subscribing to random blogs for various reasons. Then one day, as I am scanning through one of them, I wonder, “why did I subscribe in the first place?”.
102. i didnt realize that until just now. man i have a sickness. but most of them i do just scan and stop if the post title catches me or if they are from good friends.
