RSS Playground
Dokuwiki has a pretty cool feature where you can embed RSS feeds into pages. At one time I got most of my news from around the web from RSS feeds. Google had this great service called Google Reader and it allowed you and your friends to share things to each others feeds. Man I miss that service and no other RSS service has done the same. I don't know if Googles just didn't want to support RSS in hopes it died off but it really put a dent in really good news feeds.
I will try to organize my list in some fashion that makes sense to me. If categories get too long I will put them on their own pages. Well away we go…
