I Bumrushed the Charts

Date March 22, 2007

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. I support independent music through my podcast, Bwana.org Radio, mainly by utilizing music at IODA Promonet. I feel these artists deserve compensation for their [...]

endo

Date March 7, 2006

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 [...]

feedlounge back..with a vengeance

Date February 16, 2006

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!

a day without feedlounge

Date February 16, 2006

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 [...]

sub with feedlounge bookmark

Date January 26, 2006

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 [...]

Date January 26, 2006

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 [...]
