Feed me Seymour! (as Audrey 2 said it in "Little Shop of Horrors.") As far as the overload condition, there are only a few possible responses:1. "Don't even go there!" -- If you do not get involved on the web, you can't get overloaded.
2. "Meltdown!" -- Not really an option in this day and age.
3. "SCRAM!" -- This phrase from the earliest nuclear reactor refered to the dropping of carbon control rods into the atomic pile to absorb neutrons and stop the chain reaction. It's an emergency shutdown to avoid the feared meltdown or uncontrolled chain reaction leading to a possible explosion. (It stands for Safety Control Rod Axe Man. One guy was designated to sever the rope holding the control rods up in case of a runaway reaction. How bizarre!)
4. “Feed me!” – Let the RSS feeds bring the data to you instead of your scanning for new stuff all the time.
Now if only there was a way to have the service find the sites you want to feed from, with the same fine discrimination you would apply manually
Ah yes - that would be great - a service to choose my feeds. :-)
