Blog Reading

There are a couple of people from our last VTF team who blog and I have some friends elsewhere who occasionally post to blogs. Problem is, I never remembered to check them regularly.

Then I found Google Reader, which checks their updates and puts them all in one place. Very cool. Now I can stay up to date.

But I also had to remember to check Google Reader regularly to see if they had posted anything new.

Then I found Google Reader Watcher, which is an add-on to my Firefox browser (which I switched to mostly because of the Adblock Plus add-on that blocks banner ads and lets my slow internet work a little more quickly). This little add-on puts a small icon on the lower corner of my browser that tells me whether my Google Reader has any unread postings waiting for me.

Very cool! Now I can stay up to date with everyone. Maybe even ScribeFire will help me keep my postings up to date. We'll see.

You may already know all this, but I've been behind the curve on this blogging stuff.
