Yesterday I removed 85 blogs from my Blogroll, which is the list of blogs I read everyday. Some famous blogs were cut, including Scripting News by Dave Winer, Wired Magazine, Scott Hanselman's Computer Zen and a bunch more.
I'm still subscribing to 155 blogs, but about 80 of those are very slow in adding new content (about once a month or less).
The sad reality is that I was knowing too much, if there is such a thing. I was absorbing too much information that was not adding value to my startup or to my personal live.
The noise reduction is tremendous already. Most of the blogs that I read have a lot of duplication and very little new information. You can read TechCrunch, Read/WriteWeb, Mashable, GigaOm and others and you'll find there is a 90% overlap in coverage.
Then there is the VC-blog-clan with Feld Thoughts, VentureBlog, The Post Money Value, EarlyStageVC, etc. This group has only 75% overlap of posts, but still a huge overlap.
I'm finding that knowing less might be a good thing.
What is important it's not how much you know, but how what you know can be used to improve your personal and professional life.
