I should have included RSS there Keith. I mean it implicitly in the Tech/Biz Blogs category. Given that Twitter is an access point rather than a source for most people, RSS Readers should have got equal billing.
My one annoyance with PollDaddy, I can't change the questions once a poll is out there.
*So if RSS is your poison, please use the Tech/Biz Blogs option as a proxy.*
I use a combination of RSS feeds as part of my own personal curation in tandem with a "good noise" group of people on Twitter who I value highly for their content.
It is interesting to note how RSS feeds don't feature on your list Conor.
Well it's not really a surprising result considering most of the traffic to the poll came from Twitter. I am going to email it to a bunch of people who are not so enamoured with Twitter to see if that changes things.
As I semi-jokingly said yesterday, a letter to the editor of the Irish Times with the URL in it would elicit a different outcome too.
In fairness Twitter is just the human-driven aggregator. It links off to all the other sources. Doesn't generally generate content itself. Without the Irish Times and Irish tech blogs there wouldn't be much to Twitter about.
Good Plug Paul :-)

Conor,
Just while you're asking the question, a shameless plug for Enterprise Ireland's new Web / Software focussed blog at www.BestConnected.ie

Thank God for RSS. Without it, how would we have anything to tweet about?
