What’s in your RSS reader?

In the last couple of days I’ve explained what an RSS reader is to three people.  It is a good reality checked to realize how many people have never heard of RSS much less have tried it.

For the uninitiated, I’ve posted a great YouTube video at the end of this post that’s been watched over a million times (see why I need a reality check?)

I finally got the hang of reading my RSS with my mobile phone.  I check in and scan the headlines in the morning, right before I read my *gasp* newspaper.  I don’t think I could keep up with social media and marketing news without it.  I get nearly 100 headlines daily.  Imagine if that came all as email subscriptions?  Can we just say “delete all.”

I just put together a list of what I’m reading on my RSS for some MBA students I’m working with from Pacific Lutheran University.  It inspired me to write this post and to ask you: What RSS feeds do you subscribe to?  I hope you’ll feel inspired to leave your “must read” favorites in the comments.
