RSS feeds posts. The less the better!

Today I was planing to study for post-graduation studies exams in 2 weeks, but got lazy and opened Google reader. I must say I am hardcore reader, I had 1000+ (probably 2k) unread entries which were waiting for to be read by somebody O_o. As I went through entries and entries and even more entries I thought about how many stuff that I don't care about was there. I have to mention that, though I have many feeds, I regularly remove boring and unread, so there is nothing I wasn't reading in two weeks, but still there was 80% of stuff I didn't much care about. Why is that?

I am puzzled! Really I am! I am waisting my time when I could instead study. I am using RssMime and ReadBurner to filter only what I need. This helps a bit, but quite much is left still. What I need is an advanced filter system which would strip the whole blogosphere buzz to satisfy my needs.

Any suggestions? A opportunity for start-up, maybe?

Idea of the day:

Write a program for local cell phone operator. An operator would allow you to download a program which will communicate to operator servers and store all your data there: SMS, incoming, outgoing calls, contacts. Using this program you will know how much every call cost you emidiatly,  be able to look at your friends friends, post twitts, be notified when one of your contacts gets near you and more. And guess what will happen if your phone was stolen. You just contact your operator and move your data to other phone.
