Feedbucket: Playing With Digsby Edition
Welcome back! Have you joined my mailing list yet?
While I ponder the question of switching to Digsby or staying with Pidgin, here are a few interesting blog posts that I've found floating in the swamp that is my RSS reader. Thought you might enjoy reading something intelligent for a change (and they might enjoy some link love).
- Google Reader can now translate stuff for you automatically, which is great if you want to read stuff in foreign languages or something. TechCrunch
- You know you're gonna be shipping things, so why not save money in the process? Blueprint for Financial Prosperity
- You know you can't live blog while mowing your 20 acre back yard...or can you? All you have to do is stretch your WiFi signal a bit... HackNMod
- With some affiliate email opportunities, you have to use approved 'from' addresses, but creating all of those extra email accounts is a pain in the neck. Thanks to GMail, you don't have to do that now... Quick Online Tips
- Is Shoemoney the next Kevin Mitnick? There's something sneaky afoot... Shoemoney
- Speaking of Mitnick, we all know (or should) that he's probably the king of the hackers. But can he hack WordPress to make it rock a bit more? Blog Oh Blog
- GLBL shares with us a bit of the obvious. You know, because there are some folks out there that are just too stupid to know this stuff. Seriously. I mean, they elected...oh, nevermind. Gather Little By Little
That should keep you busy for a while :D
Oh, if you haven't done so already, you should follow me on Twitter and grab my RSS feed to keep up with all of the juicy (or at least runny) goodness that I spew forth from this site. You won't be dissappointed...often...

Getting Stumbled is a Good Thing
I have seen many blogs that like to give out a bit of 'link love' every now and then, just as I did the other day.
I was looking at my traffic log and noticed something interesting...the aforementioned post had been stumbled and was generating traffic. Wow...I've never had a stumbled post actually do what it was designed to do before!
That has me wondering, should giving out linkage be a normal thing for this blog?
I mean, the author of one of the posts I linked to returned the favor with a stumble, which does two things: 1) give my post more traffic and 2) gives his post more traffic from my site.
In business, we call this a win-win situation. If you are not doing this, why not? I believe I will be handing out links more often!
Just so you know, the post came from a great site that dwells in my RSS feed reader called Gather Little By Little. It's a very inspirational site - on several different levels! Go! Read! Stumble! Enjoy!

Some Interesting Articles
Every now and then I like to give out a little bit of 'link love' (which is a strange term, in my opinion) to some of the other blogs I check out so that my readers can have a chance to get inside my mind, so to speak, and see what it is that keeps me interested in all of this 'web' stuff.
Today's lucky winners are:
How I Paid Zero Dollars Out of Pocket at CVS in June - Because saving money is a good thing!
How to Get My Wife or Husband to Follow a Budget - Yeah, right...
The First Steps Away From Paycheck-to-Paycheck Living - Good ideas for those who may want to tell the boss exactly what he can do with a lifetime supply of chocolate!
Sure, they aren't articles that came out 'today', but usually when I see something that stands out in my mind, I copy them into Notepad and link them eventually.
