I enjoyed this piece over at Creating Passionate Users about The myth of "keeping up" -- especially the graphic at the top comparing what I plan to read this week to what actually gets read. Given that I spend all day every day working with information resources - reports, web sites, books, magazines, newspapers, blogs, rss feeds, emails, etc. - I definitely fall into the trap of trying to take on more than I can possible consume -- particularly since I consider myself a generalist and have very few areas that I really feel I specialize in or focus on (at times being a generalist serves me well, but often it just leaves me feeling scatter brained and behind in everything). At least I'm not alone... It'd be nice to have the time to get through the stacks though...
