Manual refresh, open interesting stuff, read throughout the day. I'm not so good at finishing off the list by the end of the day though. Eventually I just close out stuff.</p> That’s almost exactly how I use NNW as well. Manual refresh, open interesting stuff, read throughout the day.

The High Volume folder does tend to get a bit crowded sometimes and whenever I get behind too much I just mark everything as read and move on with my life.</p> I have a special folder called High Volume.
