Thanks a lot JERK!

So my wife recently put me on to google’s RSS reader site
http://www.google.com/reader

and HOLY CRAP! I am addicted (not so much as my wife who is probably reading this post RIGHT NOW. GET BACK TO WORK!..lol )

It makes browsing the webs a lot more convenient and efficient no more pesky clicking bookmarks and “surfing” from site to site, I now have it refreshed and updated with pretty much every site’s RSS feed that I visit. The interface is very intuitive (such as marking an article read as you scroll thru it) and all in all makes it a quick and easy way to check out the sites. Plus its not just some shitty blurp, its the actual pretty much full article you would see on the site, then you can click to it if there is more after the “jump”

I even added a “subscribe” link on my bookmark toolbar in firefox so that if I am on a new site I like, I can just click that and it will add it to my reader

I’m sure there are a ton more features that I will be sure to play around with to make it even better. Be sure to check it out!

Firefox Hacks: Stylish

Here’s a handy app that allows you some customization of your firefox browser via quick clicks.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108

Using that extension you can then go to http://userstyles.org/stylish/ and h4x0r your firefox to make it slim, prettier, more functional and tons of other little tweaks. Whats bests is you can preview the change before you add it and can easily remove it if it borks your FF.

Lifehacker had a great article on some terrific tweaks. Some I used and gave me a tone more browser space.

My favorites are the Auto-Hide the Bookmarks Toolbar and Hide the Edit and Help menus(who the fuck uses that crap anyway…everyone knows how to cut and paste)

You want a slick ass firefox browser, throw in stylish and tweak away. Have fun!
