LazyFeed info salvation, salivation, or overload?

Since I am an info glutton my ears perked up when I saw that the invite-only beta status had been taken off of LazyFeed. Come on, if Louis Gray likes it …

louisgray.com: No More Beta Codes: Lazyfeed Is Open for Everyone

The product's uniqueness is one of the more innovative services I have seen in 2009, which was a big part of why I practically have had a part-time job as a beta code broker, trying to gain people access to the site. As of today, that unpaid gig is done, for Lazyfeed has removed the beta wall, and opened the site to all who want to enter. If you didn't get access to the site, I strongly recommend you go and try it, as you will find the wave of interesting news and blog posts from around the Web addicting.

Yeah, it's impressive. Very impressive.

I nearly instantly starting getting news and stories after connecting my Twitter, blog, and Posterous feeds. But here's the thing I'm now faced with: I don't want to stop looking at it. New news is coming  all the freakin time and I'm not sure this is a good thing.

I made a SSB for it using Fluid so I could just watch it for a while. It's, wow, just magnetic. I see new things coming in constantly. I want to just keep clicking, I want to keep reading.

And I think this isn't a good thing. I know I'll be using LazyFeed a lot, but I think I'm going to have to be judicious about it. I'm going to have to block out time to catch up, then leave it.

Otherwise I'm just going to be stuck here reading…forever.
