It can be so easy to get stuck in a rut and even if trawling the net brings up one tiny little detail that you like, that could make a difference if applied to your designs, whether on a website or otherwise, it is worth while. <abbr><em>Danielle Ingram´s last post was... <a href="http://www.crearedesign.co.uk/blog/web-design/google-one-line-sitelinks-may-9-2009.html" rel="nofollow">Google One-Line Sitelinks - May 9, 2009</a></abbr></em> I think that particularly in the business of design it is so important to look for inspiration from alternative sources.

Otherwise, I just mark it as read. I can go through 100 articles in just a couple of minutes and bookmark (delicious) the stuff I might reference later. So jump in - it isn't as overwhelming as you would think it would be. <abbr><em>Brandon Cox´s last post was... <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/egracecreative/~3/514970342/" rel="nofollow">People Follow People</a></abbr></em> I used to try to read everything – now I minimize all titles in Reader – if a title catches my attention, I read it.

The best part was figuring out who the big names were, and then following them too. It does help to motivate active participation in the blogs more too. Now after starting a blog of my own, I'm seeing the other end of the spectrum. I love it when people discover other great niche blogs, even if only in parts, through the site. Nice post Tim! <abbr><em>Zach Dunn´s last post was... <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/buildinternet/~3/-T29TKLXVrY/" rel="nofollow">Quick Tip - Consistent Border Weight in Internet Explorer</a></abbr></em> I used to have way too many bookmarks before I started using RSS to actively follow niche blogs.
