Your RSS feed doesn’t work in my browser (google chrome) how can I fix it?
Well, since this blog is based on WordPress and the RSS link on WordPress’s main site does not appear to work as expected in Chrome. I am going to say that the fix is to move back to Firefox for reading WordPress-based blogs. Keep reading the blogs and trying the RSS links, you will find when WordPress feels there are enough Chrome users, it will be fixed.
Pretty good post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. Any way I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon.
Awesome post. Christmas is so close and I still need to do my shopping. I still need to buy my sister some lord of the rings toys. I couldn’t believe the insane prices at Amazon.
When the Kindle first came out a couple of years ago I considered it to be an overpriced gimmick. I was very surprised that they were selling any of them, let alone as many as they did. It seemed way overpriced for an e-book reader. However, as time passed I talked to some Kindle owners and all of them raved about the device.
A few weeks ago when the Kindle 2 was announced it was around my birthday. I read many positive reviews about the Kindle 2 and it started to interest me. It had been a bad year for me because my wife had died last summer. I was anticipating a downer of a birthday and I pre-ordered a Kindle on a whim (an expensive one, I know) as a birthday gift to myself. At the time I was fully expecting that I’d just cancel the order before the ship date, but I never did.
Now that I’m Kindle owner and I love it. I take it everywhere. It’s great waking up and having the newspaper ready to read; about an hour before the hardcopy arrives (I have to remember to cancel that). I’m an avid reader and like the fact that I have a great selection of blogs, magazines, and books, always with me.
Other people have listed the pros and cons of the device. I won’t repeat these. Sure there are some things that could be improved, and yes, the device is somewhat costly. However never anticipated I would find so much value in my Kindle.
