It is possible to use web based note taking tools such as simplenote/Evernote to store and sort ideas, while stash your readings to read-it-later type services. I also find services such as citeulike very useful to tackle online articles and PDFs. The framework you proposed is a reasonable and nice one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11408464606871981388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11326364.post-15054406887404073862009-07-30T10:07:09.468-04:002009-07-30T10:07:09.468-04:00Hi Jonathan,

I also prefer to only use my Reader for feeds where I want to read (nearly) everything published from a given source. If I only want to browse an occasional article, I'd rather just put it somewhere on my Google homepage (usually under an organized tab) so I don't get information overloaded with a bunch of info I don't really care about in my Reader.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11326364.post-76615440529936882882009-04-22T08:54:00.000-04:002009-04-22T08:54:00.000-04:00Inverse Search Engine InverSearch Helps Reduce Inf...Inverse Search Engine InverSearch Helps Reduce Information Overload. http://inversearch.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11326364.post-59377134543113245412009-04-13T23:18:00.000-04:002009-04-13T23:18:00.000-04:00Thanks for your answers back 3/25.

This does not mean that you "share not for the purpose of sharing."<BR/><BR/>(Question 2) And by bookmarking the valuable ones you have to leave the Reader by clicking on the item link and bookmark in the normal way - I mean is there a way to bookmark within Reader?<BR/><BR/>Please see the answer above. There is no direct G Bookmark link from G Reader.<BR/><BR/>Now when we move on to your next section on Twitter I fundamentally get lost on how to get the Reader feeds into Twitter. <BR/><BR/>Copy the title and URL from G Reader or the web page you are viewing, then paste in Twitter.<BR/><BR/>(Question 4) So I guess am I hung up on Step 2 of your flow, and wondering is that automated in the process you describe, or are you cutting and pasting between Reader and Tweetdeck?<BR/><BR/>Cutting and pasting. The post and the diagram are about a way to work more efficiently from a particular point of view, not automation. There isn't anything automatic or technically new in the description.<BR/><BR/>Will be happy to answer any further questions you may have.

I have Google Reader worked out, sort of, and checked your advice in my set up and actions. (Question 1) Do I understand that you might "share" just as an easy way of finding them later, not for the actual purpose of sharing?<BR/><BR/>(Question 2) And by bookmarking the valuable ones you have to leave the Reader by clicking on the item link and bookmark in the normal way - I mean is there a way to bookmark within Reader?<BR/><BR/>Now when we move on to your next section on Twitter I fundamentally get lost on how to get the Reader feeds into Twitter. You say "TweetDeck is better and Twitter search/subscribe to RSS is the best for that purpose." (Question 3) I use Tweetdeck but I don't understand the last part of your sentence?<BR/><BR/>(Question 4) So I guess am I hung up on Step 2 of your flow, and wondering is that automated in the process you describe, or are you cutting and pasting between Reader and Tweetdeck?<BR/><BR/>Thanks in advance for your time and attention.<BR/>@diabetorati @dawnwesleptwalteradamsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13408100968860909213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11326364.post-67362131611235582612009-03-17T06:48:00.000-04:002009-03-17T06:48:00.000-04:00I noticed you are using Amazon S3 to backup your d...I noticed you are using Amazon S3 to backup your documents.
