My Favourite Feeds

#rss

I am an avid user of RSS feeds. Checking my list reveals that I am subscribed to 530 feeds! In the spirit of sharing I thought it would be interesting to share a snapshot of my current reading list. This may prove an interesting resource for someone looking to get started with feeds or just to grow their existing subscription list.

I’ve tried to focus on feeds that are generally interesting and have high value per-post. So these should get you some interesting content without exploding your reading queue. I’ve also preferred feeds that contain the full article content so that you don’t need to leave your reader (although articles that require interactivity or are worth the click are still included). I have cut out feeds about specific software that I use or games I play as I don’t think most of these changelogs are very interesting unless you use that software. I’ve also cut out most of the higher-volume feeds and feeds that were specific to me (like a feed of outdated packages I maintain).

I’ve managed to cut down the list to 50 items. Still a good chunk, but I encourage you to read a post or two from each before subscribing and take the ones that interest you. Or just subscribe to them all then unsubscribe if you don’t find the posts interesting. That is one of the great things about RSS, subscribing costs nothing and unsubscribing is reliable. No one will save your email to spam you later.

If you just want to grab them all you can download this OPML file which can be imported into your feed reader. Or you can just follow along and subscribe to your favourites.

Below I’ve provided links to each site, as well as a direct link to the feed. I’ve also added a small summary which is typically copied from the site or feed itself, but may be added or edited by me if it didn’t seem very helpful. Items are just in alphabetical order.
