    too many….52.

    man, i thought that it was so much more….now i feel like it is a small number. Regardless, i wish it was less.

    The growing number in my reader overwhelms me most days.

    4–I thought this was a relatively large number as well, go figure

    I cleaned out my Google Reader a few weeks back, so I’m down to 82.

    Yours would be one of them Ms. Anne.

    around 200. i’d ideally like to be around 150 though.

  8. Bill (cycleguy) Avatar

    Subscribe? None. Visit? About 15 or so. One of my favorites is one called flowerdust. How’s that for “sucking up?”

  9. Matt Singley Avatar

    two hundred and three

  10. Chris Chowdhury Avatar

    102 currently. Had it down to 60 a few weeks ago. Kind of like trying to keep weight off. :)

  11. Anne Jackson Avatar

    Wow! Some of those numbers are really high!! :)

    I hover around 50-55.

  12. randy Avatar

    I subscribe to a lot, but use sage with different folders. this way when im board i just go to the ‘Random People’ blog folder and pick out of the hat.

  13. Chris Marlow Avatar

    123…although I would like to keep it at 100. However, I only read maybe 20-30 on a daily basis.

  18. Lori Bailey Avatar

    Just checked – an even hundred, categorized into different folders like marketing, writing, church leadership, kid lit, creative, etc. I don’t keep up with them all, nor do I try to. I think of them as knowledge pools that are waiting for me when I’m ready for them.

  19. Eli Ruggles Avatar

    250… way too many to actually keep up with.

  20. cool dad Avatar

    58. wow, i need to cut back.

  21. stephen Avatar

    59….i was above 70 ’til last week’s dump.

  22. Beth G. Sanders Avatar

    186 • some I read through-and-through, some I just skim.

    63, which I thought was a lot.

  24. Reese Avatar

    106 right now. They’re about half personal (individuals or groups) and half news/tech oriented. I read most of them every day.

  25. Diane Muir Avatar

    34 … but, I actually do regular purging so that I don’t make myself crazy.

  26. Katie Gordon Avatar

    33 right now…down from around 40.

  27. Jenn C Avatar

    40.

    doesn’t look so bad anymore!

  28. Tamara Cosby Avatar

    110 but I don’t read them all..

    Could you email me if you have time, I would like to talk about your grocery budget…I need some help in that area!!

  29. stephen lechner Avatar

    um…only 6. ooh i just realized that number. hold on – okay now it’s 7.

  30. Red Wine Gums Avatar

    Over 250. Changes as I add and take away a bit

  31. jon Avatar

    0 subscriptions…i go the old fashion surfing route from my own blogroll and then if something on those sites looks interesting i check it out from there…

  32. TD Avatar

    30 or so

  33. Angela Ramsey Avatar

    About 30 right now

  34. Kerri Avatar

    John Ireland

    don’t subscribe to any…but i’d say that i read five consistently :)

  37. Theresa Avatar

    I have around 30 and then I do branch off and read others at times too. There are a set 15 that I read faithfully.

    65. Wow! I didn’t realize it was that many! But several of them only update once a month or so…

  39. Amy (Dandelion Seeds) Avatar

    35, but I’ve been adding as I find new ones through the Ragamuffin challenge or anything to do with church planting. I found you on Mark Bjorlos and then again on Ragamuffin’s!

  40. nancy Avatar

    40, but many do not post often.

  41. Chris Baker Avatar

    about 140 – I need to clean house and organize them.

  42. Rachel Avatar

    I think I have about 30 in my Google Reader. I wish atleast half of those I subsribe to would suscribe to mine!

  43. wanita Avatar

    25 exac and i thought that was too many!?

    59. I need to trim some subscriptions…

  45. Crystal Renaud Avatar

    a lot but only like 20 of them actually update on a regular basis. i need to purge my reader.

  46. godzgaljen Avatar

    38…more than I thought!

  47. Kaye Avatar

    Actually I only subscribe to 51–but that’s only because those are the ones that let me use Google Reader. I frequently visit probably 50 others.

  48. Dave Carrol Avatar

    5-6….

    the rest i just check time to time

  49. brent(inWorship) Avatar

    About 250.

    I then breeze through them and pick and choose which ones to read.

    I found the more I subscribe to, the better content I am receiving consistently.

  50. mike foster Avatar

    probably about 12 or so…though this is the only one that matters…and Los too :) ….m.

  51. 6YearMed Avatar

    52. always things coming in and out though.

    I also would like to know your number.

  52. brandiandboys Avatar

    You’re doing the research this week…

    I subscribe to 60, but about once a month I week out and put new ones in. I guess I have a rotating subscription.

  53. JudiFree Avatar

    45 – and I try to read them ALL EVERYDAY…whew.

  54. JudiFree Avatar

    BRENT – 250?!?!?!?!?!??!?!!!!!!!!!!!!

  55. David Avatar

    20-25 at any given time

  56. chris g Avatar

    50 only. occasionally as a blog pooters out i replace it with a new one of interest to me.

  57. Lori Avatar

    My 7 seemed like lots ’til now. I feel better.

  58. Kristi Avatar

    I have 139 on my google reader, but most of those don’t update often. I’d guess there’s a dozen or so regulars per day.

  59. Mark Warnock Avatar

    45. Trying to decrease. Too much info.

  60. karla | looking towards heaven Avatar

    too many — *217*

    BUT – have them categorized: graphic design blogs, religion blogs, crafty blogs, friends etc, frugal blogs… so I can read just what I am in the mood for. I can just mark all as read in that category if I feel like it.

  61. Lanel Avatar

    98 organized by subjects so I can read different things throughout the day.

  62. brent(inWorship) Avatar

    Judi, like I said, I only skim the 250. But I have found that subscribing to a ton of them tends to bring me more great content.

  63. Kris Sorensen Avatar

    1,403

    made ya’ look.

    it is actually 30

  64. Amy Avatar

    370. I’m not sure all of them are still active. And I certainly don’t read them all everyday. I have my favorites, I have my book blogs, and then I have the ones I haven’t gotten rid of yet, and then the ones I read when something catches my eye.

  65. Kim Avatar

    54, including mine.

  66. Katy Avatar

    About 30 :)

  67. Dave Avatar

    About 40-50 blogs – i go through them every now & then and clean them up

  68. Cindy Avatar
    Cindy

    I don’t subscribe to any but I have 20-25 in my favorites that I check most every day. Plus I usually read through all the comments.

  69. Phil Thompson Avatar

    eight —eight is enough! Well, give or take a few.

  70. Rick Avatar

    I don’t subscribe either but I regularly visit 43.

  71. Michael Avatar

    none… I just bookmark and surf from time to time.

  72. carolyn Avatar

    ha… i clicked on this feed right smack in the middle of the violent bloody mess i am making in my google reader. let’s see… how am i doing?

    brb…

    down to 69 from 132!!

    progress!

    my new subscription m.o. as of today… i will cull every 2-3 months and go find new stuff.

    i am so excited.

    33. It got up around 300 and for a long time was over 120. Truth is any more than 40 or so and I start skimming too heavily. The bloggers I read are usually linking and conversing widely, so if there is something good out, I’ll still get a lead on it eventually.

  77. Sean Pritzkau Avatar

    about 45.
    i wish about a third of them would update more often.

  78. Neener Avatar

    Google Reader says 42 subscriptions. Some don’t really update much though. Spring cleaning time?

  79. Carol Avatar

    9 (your’s included) and they are all phenomenal!!

  80. pollyh Avatar

    About 30. Somdays more, somedays less. And I haven’t run across one yet that hasn’t had a WOW factor somewhere.

  81. AnnieLaurie Avatar

    By email – a small hand full, no more than 10

    By reader… toooooo many to keep up with!

    I need a reader organizer or best practices for reader management. :)

  82. Lon Avatar

    over 400… i can’t possibly go through them all though… i gave up a while back

  83. Tyler Avatar

    71 and growing…..

  84. Fred McKinnon Avatar

    68 … and growing

  85. Dave Avatar

    127 by today’s count. Always trying to thin the list, and continually finding cool new content to follow.

  86. John Avatar

    Currently… 133

    that is a ‘fluid’ number as I always seem to be subscribing to random blogs for various reasons. Then one day, as I am scanning through one of them, I wonder, “why did I subscribe in the first place?”.

    Maybe, it’s my ADHD…. hey, look! a squirrel!

  87. Lemmings Avatar

    155 – yikes!

  88. erin Avatar

    102. i didnt realize that until just now. man i have a sickness. but most of them i do just scan and stop if the post title catches me or if they are from good friends.
