News Aggravator
Does anyone else enjoy sporadic deja' vu moments thanks to their news aggregator? I use Bloglines like a lot of other people, but every now and then, and for no particular reason that I can discern, it rather randomly spits back old posts and articles. Today it was a post on a blog I like about an adventure to a sushi restaurant in San Francisco. While hilarious, it seemed terribly familiar. "Wasn't he just in San Francisco like a month or so ago?" I thought to myself. I checked the posting date, and sure enough, May 19, 2005.
Next thing you know, about 3 months from now, it will proudly announce Michael Jackson's acquittal.
I wish it would quit doing that. I have a hard enough time keeping track of the past and present without a news aggregator playing mind games with me.
