I have no idea what this means. (none / 0)

Bloggregator: (none / 0)

it uses RSS (really simple syndication) feeds to collect whatever blogs you want on one page together for easy browsing. You can also use a program like SharpReader to do the same thing.
Yeah, I'm cynical.

Re: Bloggregator: (1.00 / 0)

I would suggest Amphetadesk, which has significant advantages. It is decentralized, but unlike SharpReader, does not neet the insanely huge, overwrought, Microsft "Net Framework" system. It is a sourceForge project, and one of the ones that is avilable for both Windows and Linux. We will all graduate to Linux someday, unless we become pathetic Micrsoft junkies, or have highly exotoc apps that won't be available in Linux or O/s X for awhile.

Look for the totaly free Amphetadesk program at:

Heh, heh: (none / 0)

This is a program that opens a web browser. Might as well use Bloglines.
Yeah, I'm cynical.

Re: Bloggregator: (none / 0)

and why not just visit MyDD?  Is there any difference?

Well, (none / 0)

Bloglines has notifier programs available, so when something is posted to the front page here you can get some sort of signal. I'm sure that's really useful to some people.

It also lets you visit one site to scan headlines, rather than ten/fifty/eleventy different sites, if you're into that sort of thing.

Yeah, I'm cynical.
