So, DK is upstairs trying to fall asleep. Kiir was up all night reading, so she’ll likely fall asleep with him, although she did have a nap after I got home (and probably during his afternoon nap, but I don’t know for sure)
I’m going through my feeds (busy lately ; I’ve managed to keep up with the small ones, but the big ones? the ones that get 50+ a day? and tend to have things I actually click through to more often? yeah, a little behind on those … only ~500 right now.) anyway, looking at them, and deciding I’m not sure I really feel like reading them right now, I remember that my email has the SANS NewsBites, twice weekly digests with various security bits.
I have today’s. And the one from Tuesday.
And last week’s.
And the previous week’s. and back probably two months since I last managed to get the time to clear them.
I remember setting up the feed from SANS last year into google reader. Except instead of an item for each bit, there’s an item for each category. And the title is the cat title, and the body? the cat title. not even a headline listing :/
Now I’m contemplating the feasibility of setting somethign up to receive the messages, auto parse, and then produce an rss feed that i can then subscribe to (wow, that doesn’t sound complicated, does it?) since if it’s in my feeder I think I’d actually keep up on it. Because the feeder is somewhat easier to “glance at”
Ya, I start off commenting on how I don’t have time to read the stuff I’m already subscribed to, then move on to thinking about a way to make more to read … go me :)
