Google Reader (cont.) and RSS Reeds

Love that Browse for Stuff feature in my Google Reader. You don't even have to go out to other sites and look for options to subscribe; you can search it all right from your Reader page. Just click on the link on the left side of your screen and search away. Very handy!
Also, try the Trends button. It'll tell you all the stats on your Reader activity.

Google Reader

Setting up a Google Reader account was incredibly easy. All one has to do is sign in (using one's blog ID and password) from http://www.google.com/reader. All the subscriptions created in your Blogger automatically display in your blog reader page. You have an option to sort your subscriptions from there and create folders for easier access.
A very handy tool that saves you having to look at each of your friends' blogs one at a time.

She squeaks. She stalks. She poses.

Well, dear reader, yours truly has a new kitten. A library kitten, no less. Acquired from one of the patrons, who was unable to keep her.

Still working on a name for the baby. I'm sure she'll go through a few, until she finds one that is "her". So far, her "working title" is Rupee.

The baby wasn't too happy about sitting in a cardboard box while she was driven to her new home, but the journey was short, and my little Working Title was much thrilled to get re-acquainted with Kitten Chow and a litter box.

Other feline residents were slightly perturbed by the new arrival, although plenty curious about their future playmate. There's still much settling in to do, but the new baby is well on her way to becoming the new queen of the house.

Captioner. Some fun image generators.

It turns your regular, boring letters into... wait for it... dancing zombies! Pretty cool. Especially if you're easily entertained, like me. :)

Fun with Flickr

Already having a Yahoo account, setting up my Flickr page was only a matter of saying "I do". Check out my Flikr photostream here --

Spell with Flikr link on North Texas instructions page appears to be bad, but I got to play with other tools on BigHugeLabs. Will check out out some others once I get more free time.

Psyched about 23 Things!

P.S. Mr. O'Reilly (What Is Web 2.0) has a real knack for making simple things sound complicated. A piece of advice -- if you're just beginning to try and make sense of new applications, do not, and I repeat, DO NOT read his article! We put up with enough double-talk from our bankers and politicians. Nobody outside 3M headquarters needs to hear that kind of techno babble!!!

Post # 1

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.

In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

Take it easy, dear reader. And for all of you, proud owners of margarita machines out there, drink responsibly!
