Using my Google account I can have all the mailing list posts download to Google Reader.  I can then sort out the items of interest and quickly delete those which are not relevant.  For some posts, I will find something of interest for a fellow genealogist and I can just email it to them via Google Reader.

My inbox is kept for my day to day to-do items, and when time permits, I log into Google Reader and catch up on the latest news from the genealogical community.

Dan Lynch’s book Google Your Family Tree discusses the advantages of using Google Reader for every genealogist.
