I do the most blog reading between 10 and 11 AM.<\/p>\n
In fact, my online RSS consumption is heavily skewed towards the morning. I get up and read most of my blog entries for the day between 8 and 11 AM before settling into a pretty low, steady rhythm throughout the rest of the day.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a small bump again at 5 PM, but that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n
This is interesting to me. I usually get in to work at around 10 AM (or a few minutes later). Am I that unproductive\/distracted for the first hour I\u2019m there? So often, I\u2019m up at least an hour before we\u2019re out the door; why don\u2019t I do more blog reading at home before I head into work?<\/p>\n
Is there a settling period at the beginning of the day which helps me be more productive for the rest of the day?<\/p>\n
Another interesting facet of my Google Reader trend data is the fact that my blog reading over a week is a bell curve: I read the most items on Wednesdays and it peters out about evenly in both directions from there. I can understand that I may not do as much blog reading on the weekends, despite having more free hours. But why the bell curve? Do I need blog posts to make it through the middle of the week?<\/p>\n
One last fun fact: in the past 30 days, the only hour between 7 AM and midnight when I have seemed to completely refrain from any Google reader usage? 10-11 PM.<\/p>\n
Figure that one out and you\u2019ll figure me out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
