Yes, I heard about that. It was a tandem jump, but still. > I am sure you could attract some readers here by talking about > the time when _you_ were a teenager ;-) All my friends listened to the early Queen albums, jammed jazz and blues, and (I'm ashamed to report) hoped that Ronald Reagan would be assassinated because we thought he was going to start WW III. Not much there to keep a blog going; certainly not much of a social life until university. > I've noticed that you've provided this kind of "tutorial" on your > webpage, too - how about also recommending one or two decent RSS feed- > readers ? :-) I've tried Straw and Liferea in Linux, and prefer Liferea. There are some plugins for Mozilla/Firefox, but Firefox also has a simple RSS reader built into its bookmarks now. Under Windows, there are FeedDemon ($$, standalone), NewsGator ($$, Outlook), and FeedReader (open source, standalone), along with the Mozilla/Firefox options and dozens of other programs. Under MacOS X, people seem to prefer NetNewsWire, but I think there's also one called AmphetaDesk. After all that, though, a lot of people use an online aggregator rather than installing software on their computers. > http://www.megginson.com/blogs/lahso/thumb60.html > > So, if you intend to maintain that type of contents you could > certainly attract some interested readers, I think. Thanks. I'm going to try for some variety -- today, I posted about an NDB fansite, for people who log NDBs they manage to tune in the same way plane spotters log tail numbers: http://www.megginson.com/blogs/lahso/ndb-fans.html I'll probably do another more technical topic soon, maybe more of the rules of thumb.
