Tuesdays are the answer to your to-do list backlog

Good point! I thought about that when I was writing the article, but it was late at night so I let it slide. Of course someone at HN would point it out. :)

I tried to make the point (obviously unsuccessfully) that no matter what else I am doing throughout the day, I tend to read feed items at about the same rate - or so I thought. The Google Reader data isn't really scientific, just meant to illustrate that I was reading MORE on Tuesday when I thought I was having the same level of productivity the entire week. I guess I think that it can be extrapolated to reflect on the other things that I'm working on throughout the day? Like I said, it's not scientific.

(And trust me, I'm also doing other things other than reading feed items, like posting here!)
