Sweet idea with using tags with Google Reader. I've been just staring items, but they are getting mixed together with personal stuff. I'm going to be using the tag system now.

Reading. This helps me the most. I have been reading Flickering Pixles by Shane Hipps and have probably stopped at least four or five times to start a draft for a blog post. Reading has inspired me greatly.

Also, I hate to drive anywhere, i just get annoyed with being alone and want it to be more productive. Usually what I do when at traffic lights is start to brainstorm some ideas. We all drive and so we all have time to sit and think. this for me helps a lot. I then record my ideas into my iPhone.
Another tool that helps me for sure.

I've found the daily devotional reading often does it for me – proof that God often speaks to us through the Scriptures! And having a BIG list of diverse RSS feeds to peruse (like yours) often triggers something for me.

And what format moleskine do you use? Lined, unlined, etc.?

I open my Bible and let the Spirit guide my thoughts and write about it. I also pull thoughts from books I've read and expand on them.
