Fan-freaking-tastic.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t convince me to use Toluu even more than I already do. In fact, my use of Toluu has now approached <em>second-nature habitual<\/em> levels. I come across a blog that I like, I click the <strong>Subscribe via Toluu<\/strong> bookmarklet, and wait a few seconds. The feed gets dumped to Toluu and then dumped to Google Reader. Just like that. I don&#8217;t even think about it anymore, it simply happens. And then I reap the benefits of looking through the <a href=\"http:\/\/toluu.com\/activity\">Toluu friend activity stream<\/a> and finding more interesting people and interesting blogs to add. Everyone else just has to put up with the nonsense I occasionally toss in myself.<\/p>\n<p>Toluu is a great system that has been a resource for me to discover new content to read. I <a href=\"http:\/\/friendfeed.com\/e\/e3151932-2581-4fd8-81af-c5e78d0d0990\/Big-bug\/\">joked in FriendFeed<\/a> last week that there was a big bug in Toluu that made it so that I now have too much to read. Obviously, this isn&#8217;t a bug. It&#8217;s a side effect of having subscribed to far more blogs than I&#8217;m used to reading. But I keep the stuff I like, and I will eventually pare down the stuff I don&#8217;t feel is benefiting me in any reasonable way. But in the end, I&#8217;ll have a lot more valuable content to read, absorb, process, and add to my total sum of universal knowledge, and that, my friends, is truly what the internet is about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My new favorite RSS feed suggester, digester, and recompenser Toluu (first talked about here) just released some nifty new features.
