RSS and Atom Readers

Even when you understand the idea behind a technology it takes time to incorporate it into the way you live. RSS Readers let you sit on top of a huge amount of information and scan the titles very quickly to pluck out the nuggets that are worth your time. The more I use Google's reader the more I appreciate it. I still have a Blockbuster account (yes I know they are going under) but I can see what has been recently released through a RSS subscription. Local news, comments made by friends on a meetup site, magazines, all kinds of information can be managed via a reader.
