Planets realign... again

So here's the thing.. The situation.. Yesterday I open the old reader (an actual program site thing) that took the place of Google reader last year or whenever it was ...  I so got into RSS reader a couple years ago and when Google stopped that part I was looking all over for a replacement.. Found it in the old reader.. Then yesterday I open it and it says they are going the pay route.. Six dollars a month.. Big bucks really.. I mean it really isn't but for me, I look at twenty sites regularly maybe, and I had over a thousand before with Google reader then cut it way down to just over five hundred when I migrated to the old reader..  Well ever since I had troubles with the browser(s) and the FVD speed dial set up, I was going to downsize by way of the count on them.. They have a number of clicks counter on everything I use  and I can tell what I use and what is a waste of space.. Same was the case with the RSS reader, I was going to downsize that anyway, just that now I will get to it sooner than putting it off until...????   They have a free tier at 100 RSS sites and like I said I think I will have around 50..  It sure would be cool to keep more but on the other hand I never look at them so why keep them now..   So there might be more "Likes" on Facebook in case anyone wonders why I "like" this or that or why it is or seems to be exploding on the FB or twitter.. That's the reason.. I will try to keep the more interesting of them on Facebook or twitter and the others will be on the speed dial or be deleted all together..    Hard to believe but there will be nearly none of the RSS feeds.. Truth be told I am getting tired of keeping all that together, and there really is no need to keep  a lot of it.. With the Roku I have news channels that are easy replacements for all the news..  How much is too much..  I think I found it and this long after having the reader and realizing how few I really do use it is an easy retraction to do..  Getting it small... Get small.. I'll do that.. Happiness is getting shit to be manageable ...

(P.S. The final number on the RSS reader count was 77...   Unbelievable I know but.. How many made it to the speed dial??  Way to many.. That will be the next cleaning out session..  Facebook got a lot, as did twitter both of which need a clean out as well..  I thought that way before as I was adding some sites to Facebook that that was way too overloaded as well and twitter.. forgetaboutit...  )
