So’s not to clutter this one…

As part of an ongoing project at work, I’ve started up a new blog over at chadberg.edublogs.org… .  What better way to make sure I’m fully familiar with the tool than to use it?  That’s a bit of a misdirection though; it’s a customized WordPress solution, so I’m already very familiar with the core.  But I do need to be familiar with the custom changes made for educational purposes.  So over there I’ll be blogging about my professional world (is that ‘plogging’?).

I’ve only a couple of posts there at the moment, but more in draft form.  Interested parties are welcome to subscribe.  Uninterested parties are too, but I don’t know as that will happen.  Bizarrely interested people are welcome to subscribe to that one and unsubscribe from this one.

I've long since stopped using LJ as an RSS reader, but there's something to be said for keeping all your stuff in one place. (OTOH, it is awfully clunky if you're reading more than a few things).

What RSS reader do you use?

Oh, I definitely agree on keeping everything in one place. I've long deplored the lack of simple RSS output from LJ, but have managed to pipe my friends page into an RSS feed. I actually do the converse of those who pipe everything into LJ. Currently I am using Google Reader. I need something web based so I can access it easily, and prefer to not have to read the same things at home and at work, which would happen with separate desktop readers. I use to run Gregarius from my own host, but it hasn't kept up to date, and Google Reader has yummy yummy keyboard shortcuts that make it *very* easy for me to chew through a few hundred items in minutes.
