However I don't immediate cull everything down to one source. Sometimes it is good to keep some sources that repeat news. If more than one source is talking about a product or online service in a positive way it generally gets my attention more and eventually causes me to say, "OK, OK! I'll check it out!" It's valuable for spotting trends however I am cutting back on feeds that are essentially "feeds of feeds." It’s always a good exercise to audit your daily activity.

Perhaps it's time for some purging.

I use Bloglines for my RSS feeds, and I found that I was opening some folders just to remove the "unread" tags from the lists. I have multiple NPR feeds and multiple Yahoo News feeds - some of those are redundant, I'm sure. Weird thing is, I was about to blog about this very thing.
