If you like reading this blog and you want to read more articles that I find interesting but don’t have time to blog about, feel free to follow me on Kippt (and also Twitter, but I put even more links on Kippt now). It’s my new obsession that is filling the Google Reader sharing-shaped hole in my heart.
My Google Reader is pretty much the only reason I ever know anything.
Bundle Up: Web Comics
I just discovered Google Reader bundles and they are my new favorite thing (they’ve been around since last May, but apparently I live in a cave?). Here’s a bundle of my favorite web comics. You can also follow my shared items, if you’re so inclined.
Wow, my friend Matt’s latest video is on Boing Boing! He invented a footpedal that can scroll through Google Reader items for my colleague/friend Lauren (and yes, she’s actually using it at our office). Matt is also probably the only person I know who just happens to own a soldering iron and something called a Dremel, which I’ve never even heard of before.
Google Reader
Is where I share the things I read and enjoyed but was too lazy to blog or tweet about. Follow me, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Google Reader Share of the Day (from Andrew): “I’m sharing this because I think it was an oversight that Alyssa did not. Her share button must be broken.”
When I was little, I was a huge bookworm (probably because I didn’t have access to the internet yet). But lately, I don’t read many books because I’m too consumed with newspapers, magazines and my Google Reader. I feel pretty bad about it.
I really love Cat’s Cradle and I think about it a lot. I also love A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, even though everyone seems to hate that book now. The most recent book I read that I felt really obsessed with was I Was Told There’d Be Cake (this is probably also cliche, but whatever).
The books I reread most often are probably my Dorothy Parker and Edna St. Vincent Millay poetry collections. They never get old.

For the record, they were Shar-Peis

Funny moment of day: was doing a training session with 12 clients and was showing them Google Reader. I used mine for a demo and we were discussing shared items. I clicked through and the first thing that popped up was a picture of nude David Hasselhoff wearing two pugs…that’s my girlfriend!
How I know things.
