My Pocket Reading for 2014

The year is nearly over, and I just found out that I'm in the top 1% of readers on @Pocket!. I read 2,191,432 words in Pocket in 2014. This is more than double of what I read last year.

What's changed

One of the things that I started using this year is IFTTT. I set up recipes to detect new articles from a source and then automatically save them to Pocket. This is basically an RSS feed. This makes reading easier and less time consuming, because articles just appear without me having to look for them.

Reflections

The end of the year is a common time when you reflect on what you did and think about what you want to do moving forward. I like the fact that I am reading a lot, but I can't say for sure what else I can draw from knowing this much. Maybe, I'd be better off reading less, and writing more? Maybe I should be more discerning about what I read?

In any case, the numbers are in, and they are what they are. Onto the next year !
