I'm overdue to refresh my RSS subscriptions in... - Bwana ☠

Not as much as I should. Usually it goes in a cycle of subscribing to a bunch of feeds and then weeding it down when it becomes too much. - Nate Pilling

I never do. I close my session when I'm done with it and login again after. And refreshing won't grab the new entries as they are published anyway - directeur

If I post something to my blog :) (Just eager to see it in Google Reader. But it's slow I believe) - Sarath

It's funny that u post this question. I have just recently started doing some house cleaning in my Google Reader over the past couple weeks. - Jeff

Didn't know I could do that speaking of google reader I have to add you - Matt Bebich

I need to. I've got more feeds than I have time to read. - Vaughn

I need to learn about the concept of adding people so I can see their feeds. That is my next step. - Amani

See the edit: Nate and Jeff got it - Bwana ☠

O nope haven't done that. - Matt Bebich

I used to spend hours per day on GReader, since FF, Twitter and a host of other outlets, I get on, at most, 2 times a week. - Hal

no, I've never done that but I do occassionaly review the feeds I'm not reading very often and will delete some. I notice that my mood or thought changes and feeds I was once very interested in become yesterdays news and get deleted. - David Ward

I also notice that I read many feeds less and less because of Twitter and FriendFeed. - David Ward

I never refresh, just add new feeds to new folders/tags and tend to look at other folders less. - Mike Reynolds

I do a Google Reader cleansing every 3-4 months. I keep a back up of the quality and must reads at Toluu. When times comes I clear my Google Reader and upload my Toluu OPML file. That's my system. - Mike Fruchter

When I find new feeds I add them to Toluu first, this is what makes the system work. - Mike Fruchter

I have 783 blogs in my Google Reader so far and I wouldn't give them up for anything other than the priviledge of running Darren Rowse's Problogger blog for a month. - J. D. Ebberly

Nope, just have a periodic cull once and a while - Threepwood

I guess I don't ever "refresh" my feeds, but I do regularly prune the ones I don't read. - Mattie Kenny

Yes - did it 2 weeks ago, and am once again overrun, but at least there's a different flavor to the deluge. - Josh McHugh

Yep. Every two or three months I do a purge, based on the trends option from Google Reader. It really does a good job of showing me what I am actually reading. - James Dorminey

I used to refresh as it was easier to edit the folder structure in an offline RSS reader. I've got my feeds into a far tidier place have not had the need to edit them. Editing in GReader is awful. - Kol Tregaskes

Been doing it on and off all week Bwana. Almost there. Feedly helps A LOT - Charlie Anzman

I pretty much only delete feeds that no longer work, or haven't updated in over a month - i should probably delete the feeds that i don't regularly read though... - Nathan Chase

I can't imagine feed-zero. There are a few dozen essential feeds I always want to have in my reader, why delete them? Beyond that though, I do add and delete as circumstances warrant. - LogEx

to date have not had to delete while every post is not a home run there is always something to be learned at some point and having the ability to scan via reader is easier to see what is being said & talked about that peeks interest. - JuneM

Prefer to prune - Geoff Schultz

I rethink my feeds about once a month. My tastes really do change that quick these days. - Mike Lewis

Never from scratch. I add with discretion and cut occasionally. - Andrew Smith

I'm due too - Shey, Jamaican of FF

I use the pruning method too. Have never wiped them all and started fresh. - Patrick Jordan

I just did an RSS reset. - Alan Le

i reset mine a while back...now building it back up :) - (jeff)isageek

Never... just the prune - Ian D. Nock from twhirl

I don't see the advantage of a refresh as defined. I cull some feeds from time to time, and add others. Culling helps to keep my feeds to a manageable level...although for some three months I was at 1000+ unread items. - Paul Roberts

I've been gradually moving all real people to FriendFeed. I like it when they join themselves, but I will create an imaginary if I have to. I'd like for my GR feeds to eventually be nothing but media and group authored sites. - Kevin Gamble

If you are on Toluu, we have just fixed a bug with resetting your feeds, so reset away! - Caleb Elston

Yeah, I do. - Yuvi

Yeah, I just did a big purge. Very helpful. - Chris Baskind

I'm thinking of just taking all the Shared Google Reader entries and just relying on those people to give me information (aside from a few little known blogs). I don't need to read every Engadget/Techcrunch/Slashdot article - Tyler (Chacha)

About once a month. I like Chacha's suggestion quite a bit and may move to do that myself. - Brandon Mendelson

Not from scratch, but I skim through and remove several feeds fairly often. And I keep it under 300 total. (270 right now). - Nathan Howell
