Little Pink Feeds for You and Me:

At last count I’ve got 78 rss feeds (say what?) in my reader. It’s the only way I keep track of my favorite blogs and online publications without losing my head. Even then I still do sometimes.

However, because I view idiocy as a virtue, I still get angry when I discover my favorite web sites don’t have feeds. I usually then forget they exist for many months at a time 1) because there are too many of them and 2) I have the attention span of a firefly.

Feedapalooza is a new service that may be the answer. It creates custom rss feeds for any site you want for the very reasonable price of $2. $16-$20 seems a small price to avoid waiting for my favorite sites to come into the 21st century, year five, month 7. For me, when it comes to information consumption, the future is now. Now count to ten.

The future is now past. Hurry! Catch up!

UPDATE: How’s this for fast? Eric Rice reports that the New York Times does have rss feeds. Hot damn!
