Continuing at my own glacial pace, I have finally acquired an RSS feed site (is that the proper title?) and have stocked it with the minimum three required feeds--only one of which is new. As for the others--aldaily.com and NPR's Talk of the Nation---am I more likely to look at them now that there is an additional mediating layer of electronic 'stuff' between me and their content? I'm already overstimulated by the array of information inexorably bearing down on me.
What would my namesake, Henry James' inquiring journalist Henrietta, have made of all this? She thought of herself as a modernist but was much less successful at the enterprise than she supposed. (That's why I gave my blog her name.) Would she have enthusiastically embraced technology, but made a hash of it? Is this a fit topic for online speculation?
Well, on to the next technological summit to be scaled.

Well, glaciers DO move forward and that is what matters, lol. Keep looking at more Things even if you need to do it slowly. :-)
