LifeHacker: How to Filter and Manage Your Online Social Life [Information Overload] at Uvox.us. You speak technology. We speak news.

    • So now you’ve got a whole mess of RSS coming your way—what to do with it? Filter them, combine them, send them do your email, and make sure you never have to hear about “Which X Are You?” results again. Here are the tools to get that done:

      • Filtering:FeedRinse is the multi-tool for cutting out authors, keywords, profanity, or anything else. Filter My RSS is the more simple keyword solution.
      • Combine them: If you don’t want to get technical and just want a master feed of a whole bunch of friends’ feeds, RSS Mix and FeedCombine are your best bets.
