You may or may not know of The Blue and Brown Crumpled Balls of Papers, an aggregate of junk from RSS feeds, and/or any other item of interest one might find at random. I only suggest this out of hope that you might find it somewhat stimulating in your quest to ward ‘the boredom’ off.
this is powered entirely by ‘tumblr‘, one of the easiest and (just recently updated) slick-looking tumble-log interfaces I’ve come across. Not only will it import any feeds from your Twitter, or blog, it also works seamlessly with Google Reader’s Shared Items (see the post on Google Reader if you missed it).
This is an easy way to keep track of items of interest, and share them in a larger space. It’s also a great ‘lazy blogger’ tool. Do you have friends (or family) who send you endless ‘FWD:’ emails? Random pictures or embedded youtube clips on your myspace? Instead of putting them in your ‘almost spam’ folder, try recommending a tumble-log instead. I’m fairly sure tumblr is a perfect tool for them, free, easy, and it makes your junk look half-presentable.
