not much weekend left.

I’ve been cleaning and watching movies or “Law & Order” all day. I have yet to do laundry so I have clean clothing for work tomorrow. Yay.

Anyway - what I wanted to share tonight was the discovery of my almost favorite new thing - RSS Bandit, the (free) RSS news aggregator I just installed on my computer and will probably install at work so I can keep track of industry info in a more efficient fashion. I had to install some .net updates from the Microsoft site for the RSS Bandit software to work, but it wasn’t anything even slightly difficult.

But it’s super cool - as of 15 minutes ago, I have feeds coming in from: mentalfloss, LibraryThing, BBC News, beSpacific, ResearchBuzz, Slashdot, Wired and Digg.

That’s for starters - I need to start adding more fun ones like mentalfloss. Perhaps I can hit some literary magazines and fashion magazines… as well as The Cartoon Network, Sci-Fi Channel and Discovery Channel. They must have some sort of feeds going on… I’ll check later.

I just called in an order for some General Tso Chicken with BROWN rice (always when available - that’s why I chose this Chinese place over the other one in town. The other doesn’t offer brown rice) and some hot and sour soup. It will be ready soon, so I should throw in a load of laundry and go pick up the tasties.
