Managing your feeds
Step 3
This could be the start of something big. Look at the title of this blog. The point of using feeds is to keep yourself more informed, while spending less time and effort hunting for information and then storing and managing it.
It's important to make your feed reader do the hard work. So look for features that will help. Putting in the effort in the early days to organise your feeds into folders and using the reader's functionality to save and redisplay the posts of interest will mean less time relocating information.

- Set up a folder, or category structure that makes sense for you.
- Save or move individual posts into a clippings area, or blog about it yourself
- Use "keep new" or "mark unread" features to keep a useful post on display - but turn that off once it is no longer relevant
- Unsubscribe from feeds that end just being clutter
