get an rss reader (aka, use an rss reader)

this is a story about using an rss reader. They are great. You don't have to go to the website anymore, just sit back and have it download new articles for you. Pretty much all blogs and websites provide rss streams for you now. You can even follow comments without needing to refresh

for osx: Use NetNewsWire
It's fast, configurable, looks nice, lightweight, rad

for win: use NetNewsWire for osx on the mac you are going to buy, or use google reader with some kind of notifier. Or I think firefox can act as an rss reader. use that

Congrats grad, you now will waste more time watching your rss reader and immediately switch from whatever you are doing to it when you see a new article has popped up.

Oh, and..


I'm Back!
