Too much clicky

It is with regret that I announce my decision to stop updating the Righty Groupthink Tracker. This is due to the drastic increase in clicking required to complete the task since Blair’s blog move to the Terrorgraph’s website. You see, prior to his move all I needed to do to monitor the groupthinking blogs of Blair and Bolt was to subject my eyes to them in my RSS reader, but the RSS feed of Blair’s new blog contains post summaries only. So to read Blair’s posts I now have to click through to the actual site and then click on the “read more” link at the end of each individual post. TOO MUCH CLICKY!

I apologise for my lack of dedication to the important task of pernicious groupthink monitoring but I take comfort from the fact that since October 2006 GrodsCorp has successfully exposed the extent of intellectual (sic) duplication between the two RWDBs.

I switched to the Atom feed instead (for Bolt at least, no point reading everything twice). For some reason it has the full post and less formatting issues than the RSS feed.

I’m donating the clicks I’ve saved to less privileged mouse-users than myself. (Trackball users still deserve to be deported.)

well I think the point that neither one of them has a single solitary original thought is well and truly made.

A sad day indeed. I hope there are other feeds as per Steve D’s comment that could allow the list to grow.

Sounds like a good move in terms of your mental health, Ed.

It’s the love that now thank god no longer speaks its name. Less spotlighted the better I think.

Those guys are sausages. I shudder to think how they were made.

Put it probably involved offal and skin tubes.

Stop being mean to Blair. His soccer team probably wins games.
