RSS!

Yeah, I didn't have any clue what RSS was at first, but after a bit of wiki research ( http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS_(file_format) , http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregator ), it seems pretty simple, and way cool! Basically, the RSS feed does the work for you when it comes to checking for updates on websites, and of course, blogs such as this one. What you need first is an aggregator, or and RSS reader. This program can decipher the code for you and manages your RSS subscriptions. Luckily, Google has just the thing for free and on a web page at http://www.google.com/reader . Basically, you sign in (you'll need a google account - also free) and then you can add subscriptions - such as this one!! Then, the next time I write about some ridiculous new technology, you'll instantly be prompted about it through the RSS feed! Good luck and good RSSing!!
