I use Bloglines to keep tabs on various blogs out there. You can see a partial list over there to the right. *points* I don’t have everything listed because, frankly, the list would be longer than the longest long thing you can name! Oarfish! Rapunzel’s hair! Lines at the DMV! John Kerry’s face! Long!

Anyway, back to Bloglines. If I decide to follow a blog, I’ll subscribe with Bloglines, so any update appears whenever I log in, which I do a few times a day. This is a neat convenience for me.

But Julie, you say, I thought Bloglines makes you crazy?

They do, kemosabe. Because I am incapable of wandering away until I have read every update on every blog, no matter how much or little time I have, no matter if I’m interested in reading poetry or politics or neither, I have to read them all. I am OCB–Obsessive-Compulsive Blogliner.

At the same time, I’m lazy. If I sub to a blog, I put it in a certain folder so I’ll remember to pay more attention to it at first. And then I forget and leave it there and never move it to one of my classifications so that it’s public and everything is a big jumble and I haven’t even been doing this for two months.

I have the organizational skills of a Mongol horde. A chaotic Mongol horde, mind you, not a tidy one.

Bah.
