Thing 5 (and 6)

RSS feeds are another thing I've been using for a while, though not always through googlereader: being lazy and technologically inept, I started with the closest (and easiest) thing to hand, which was the windows mail application I have on my laptop. This was fine when I was only accessing the internet from that computer, but when I started working and thus wanting to access my feeds in new (and not-so exciting places, it became completely redundant.

And, again being lazy and inept, I stuck with the google account I already had and used reader. I'll admit I was hardly reading any blogs: our trainee one, and then a couple of writer ones (fantasy writer Neil Gaiman, who is very interesting (and funny) and often has unusual insights into the publishing world, Sarah Salway who is a favourite writer of mine and posts alot of what she calls 'snaps' - microfictions of 50 words or less.)

As well as 23 Things though, I have now increased that list, mainly adding other trainee's blogs, couple of SSL staff members who are doing 23 things and updating regularly, that kind of thing.
