About To Read Less

To Read Less is a simple newsreader, which applies Bayesian-like analysis to the feed items you have yet to read. The theory is that by marking the things that you are interested in and the things you definitely don't want to see you will have fewer feed items to read, reclaiming more of your time and attention for the wonderfully exciting life that you lead.

To Read Less was first written in the 24 hour of Yahoo!'s Open HackDay, held in London on May 9th and 10th 2009. Mark Norman Francis persuaded James Aylett of the wisdom of the idea, and together they roped Richard Boulton in to help with the project.
