I love music.
I love the fact that we can express ourselves through song or instrument. What I don’t love is the capitalistic, money grubbing ways of the RIAA.

As soon as I profess my undying love for FeedLounge, Adriaan births an RSS aggregator called endo. What sets endo apart from what I’ve used in the past is the following:

Quicksilver like keyboard interaction - The way it works is that you start typing a RSS feed group name and it automatically moves to [...]

one of my favorite sites that deal with high definition television, hdbeat, has finally started their own podcast. i’m having trouble subscribing to their rss url, but i can get by with just a direct download of their mp3 until it’s addressed. yet another podcast in my subscription list

so today’s feedlounge downtime was painful but the outcome is definitely not. seems this super data conversion which was not planned to take as long, as increased speed of feedlounge tremendously. the application is snappy and responsive! my only complaint about feedlounge (other than the money requirement) has been addressed!

since feedlounge has undergone maintenance pretty much the entire day, i have been without my favorite feed reader. the old saying goes, “you never miss a good thing until it’s gone”. yeah well, i miss feedlounge..i refuse to go back to bloglines as it’ll be similiar to going back to black & white [...]

so i’m still geeked about feedlounge. i replaced my “sub with bloglines” button with “sub with feedlounge”. i basically editted the source code and changed the bloglines url to the feedlounge one used with their button generator. it’s a little “stupid” right now as it can’t automagically check for rss urls on [...]

i just found my new rss reader: feedlounge. i’ve been using feedlounge just today and i’m convinced, it rocks. $5 a month right now, but i don’t care, it’s worth investing a price of a value meal for something i use everyday for my daily reads. using web2.0 technologies (there’s that word [...]
