There is a WORLD of difference between reading articles that people physically SHARE with you in Google Reader, compared to things like StumbleUpon. Unfortunately, and this might not be entirely true... but it is my perception, usually when I get an instant message about an article in Digg, SU, etc... or even in Twitter, there is some personal incentive behind the person who is informing me of the article being shared. With Google Reader, its completely different.... there is NO INCENTIVE to share. If a friend shares something with you in Google Reader, typically it is truly because the friend wants to share something cool with you because they are being nice. In my opinion, that is pretty damn valuable. And THAT is what you can expect to find when you read something I share with you via Google Reader or my Shared Items RSS Feed. I suggest that everyone take pride in what they share within Google Reader. I have to say this too… because it was in my head.

I love CSS and prior to reading that article, I thought that I knew CSS. I quickly realized after reading THAT!!! that I had a TON to learn about CSS. The author of that blog has some mad crazy CSS skills. Oh man… dude, that article was the bomb! I love CSS and prior to reading that article, I thought that I knew CSS.
