Thoughts on an empty space
As the world kept him thinking in turns so would the blank, empty, undiluted space in the upper right corner of his unimaginative American blog. It left itself for last - as if it knew it was much too smart for him - as if the search bar that had once been there was an overture to another space in time - as if that corner meant more than it really did.

Full-feed RSS is a jewel that media companies refuse to explore
Let me add this item to the short list of things I’ll say amen to. I’m a voracious RSS consumer – my reading list stands at 577 feeds as I write this – and nothing chaps my ass more than having to click out of my reader and over to a the actual site to read a full item – especially if I’m reading feeds on my phone. Granted, it is kind of nice to get a whiff of the originating sites design and original context, but more often than not I’ll just skip over partial feeds – unless they are so intriguing that I just HAVE to jump. When I’m in flow – scan – read – mode I just want ingest and progress – not jump. Jumping is for browsing – for when I’m looking for new feeds – full feeds.
