      <title>Are RSS Feeds the New Tear-a-Page Desk Calendars of Our Time?</title>
      <description>Tear-a-page desk calendars - I'm sure you've owned one - maybe a Dilbert or a Far-Side strip every day for 365 days a year? Except if you're anything like me you loose interest in them or don't integrate the daily ritual of the tear-a-page into your life and end up in May with 5 months of dead tree to toss out. I'm starting to feel like that with RSS feeds - when I miss a day or two or ten of checking a busy feed (typically through Bloglines) the task of scanning 300 or so blog entries becomes too much and I fall behind - way behind.</description>
