What's the internet?

I read way too many blogs. I just added a bunch recently too. I'm out of control! I need to figure out what in the hell an RSS feed is so that I don't have to go clicking all over the place to see if anyone has updated or not. How do those things work? Anyone?

Oh crap, I just realized there are two more people I forgot to add to my list. In the meantime, I would not have understood this joke last year and I have some awesome/horrible people to thank/strangle for that.



And this is hilarious!

Hey - thanks for adding me to your links! You made my day!

I use RSS feeds through Bloglines. It's awesome and it's so much faster (I live in the boonies where only dial up is available). You will be able to see which blogs have been updated, and be able to read the new posts through bloglines - if you want to comment, you just click on the blog title and it takes you to the blog you want to comment on. There are other RSS readers available, but bloglines is the only one I'm familiar with.

To sign up for bloglines, go to www.bloglines.com and click on "sign up now, it's free". Then simply fill out the information. Click submit, and you're on your way... If you have any problems let me know - I'd be glad to help out...

I like bloglines too, and that's the one I use. Google Reader is also nice, especially if you're usually logged into your Google account anyway; the only reason I haven't switched over is because I'm too lazy to resubscribe to all my feeds.

Google Reader is the first RSS-type thing I've ever used and based on that vast and expansive knowledge, I have to say GReader is the very, very best, ever in the whole internet.

Until I find or try something better, that is.

The Power of Google COMPELS YOU!

Seriously, I had bloglines for a while, but nothing compares to Google Reader.

And TOG you can add a subscribe to button on your google toolbar and it's literally three clicks and your done.

Then you can organize your feeds into nifty little folders... you know what, I'm going to do some screencaps for you Jen!

I looked at a couple of places and I signed up with Google Reader. I now I have to spend the rest of the day trying to get everyone on my list added to it. If I somehow manage that without destroying my computer I'll be really happy. I swear, the internet makes me feel like I'm 1000 years old.

I saw that Dora parody Saturday Night... in a Nyquil fog, mind you. My husband was coming to bed and I raised my hand and pointed, grunting to the TV to get his attention. It was hilarious! We just discovered Dora and Diego in this house and that bit was spot on!!

Stand up! Stand up! STAND UP!

I'm with you...I've got to get feed.

That Dora skit, OMG, husband and I watched it on SNL and were just ROTFLOL.

Thanks for your comment today on my blog/poem. My husband's father is one of the grandparents you described...he's just does not get it.

Just so long as you don't start linking to the AAAAAAAH Blog and I lose my spot at the top of your blogroll.

I'm trusting that you read comments because I could not find your email (AOL would not "connect").

This is your official "tag" for the following meme
