Some on-line reading

I don't really imagine these things:

a) you read this so consistently, that you desire more of whatever this is
b) you are deeply interested in this
c) you have free time
d) you are very geeky

Even so, this feature, through the outstanding Google Reader, fulfills the requirements of a-d, allowing me to post to a neutral page content that I read through different blogs and deem rather interesting, geeky, worth free time, and so forth.

That page is located here, and it will be updated with good stuff. There's a lot more to say about this thing. To step back first, Google Reader is a "feed syndicator" that has you subscribe to any kinds of RSS (Really Simple Syndication) "feeds" - these take the form of buttons on different pages, such as on a news page there will be a button that says "subscribe to this RSS feed here", or through the reader through a search that you then subscribe to the feeds through. So, the page mentioned above is the stuff that through reader I designate "shared", so it is posted to that page, which then becomes its own RSS feed that you can subscribe to through Google Reader or a similar thing. Note that another way to check this out is through the "Shared items" box now on the right side of the page.

Consider this an experiment in geekdom, self-indulgence; better yet, don't get sucked in to the geek black hole and spend your time and energy in other areas. But frankly I think this is cool as heck. One last thing, I will post things that are from esoteric feeds, sites or blogs, and generally not from big sites that you can find on your own.
