I just wanted a vector rectangle with an 8.5x11 ratio. This UX workflow is horrible, when they made it so easy to do as a raster layer.

Did I miss something here, or is this really the best way to do it?

Feed Reader Overload

I’ve observed an interesting pattern in the way I keep up with RSS feeds.

When I have few items in my feed reader, say less than 10, I jump in and read them all.  Interesting or not.  This means I waste my time reading articles which aren’t interesting to me, because there’s just not a whole lot to read.

The logical next step is to subscribe to more feeds, and ones which are more targeted to my interests.  What happens is that I fall behind and have to play catchup, which means I waste time reading posts which are out of date.  This becomes frustrating, “screw it” and I stop reading feeds altogether.

Lately, I’ve been subscribing to even more blogs which completely overloads my Google Reader inbox.  Mentally I realize that I will never be able to consume the information as fast as it comes in, so I just focus on current relevant posts and let the rest fall by the wayside.

I feel more in touch the past few weeks.  More up to date, and interested in my topic again.
