Random sweetness of Snackr

I like the way AdobeAir seems to be stirring up things. And it is stirring up things in a good way. Take for example Snackr. But what is Snackr? Well it is an Adobe Air app that functions as a ticker for RSS feeds.

But what does Snackr do? Oh this is the fun part … Read More

Google Reader for the IPhone and other mobile devices

I check and read my feeds on the computer - desktop and my Asus Eee. It has been sometime since I check or read my feeds on cellphone. I might And this is because … well It is choice really like not bringing home work from the office or problems to the dinner table. It is a decision. However, there are times when being able to access one’s feeds on the mobile might be needed and even an advantage.The people at Google seems to know this and now we have Google Reader for the Iphone and other mobile devices.

Green and RSS

The theme for this month is Green. Meaning to be environmental friendly. And this is kind for us here at A Feed Is Born because or product or our niche is not really physically tangible. However, the RSS and Web feeds can be found nearly everywhere. It would be easy for us to set up you up with Al Gore’s feed. although here at the Tech channel hands down we would recommend - Eco Friendly Driver’s RSS feed.

One thing we admit here at A Feed Is Born is that we are we love information - ergo spend a lot of time on the Web. So how could info-addicts and purveyors of fine RSS and other Web feeds contribute to the greening of the Web?

Dilbert’s RSS Feeds

Dilbert has been one of my favorite comic strips. Perhaps its because its humor is easily anchored in my world. The world of cubicles. Working from a fixed time at least five times a week.

The again I always like comic strips like Bloom County and Charlie Brown. Anyway, I am digressing. Fans of Dilbert and Scott Adams will surely appreciate the RSS feeds of Dilbert.com.

Yes, It is feeds.

One more way to read a twit

Talk have been abound that Twitter is the new RSS feed. In other words it is the new way to deliver information or at least notify everyone that you have a new item posted on one’s blog or website. To me it seems to be more of an alert system when it comes to posts and new items published.

And for me one of the main problems with Twitter is it tends to get annoying. This is so true when you follow more than a hundred or so persons Read More

Evernote - a weapon worthy of the constant infophile

I recently stumbled upon an essay that divides the world into infophobes and infophiles. It is generally believed that the infophobes outnumber infophiles. Recently, I was able to get into and was able to use Evernote. In a nutshell it is an information, data and knowledge capture tool.

Google Reader new feature is share and share

Have you tried Google Reader’s Your Notes feature? It is Google Reader’s new feature that allows you share with one’s friends anything that can be found on the Web that you might find interesting. It is Google Reader’s version of sharing the love and the information.

It is quite simple to install. Just drag Google Readers’ Note in Reader to your browser. Voila! its installed.

Sharing posts, pages and other such things is done with a click on the brower and one can write down notes using Notes page.

Interesting now I have Evernote and Note in Reader in my web browser. Both able to capture but for different purposes. At least for me.

What is interesting though is the Your Notes feature of Google Reader. Aside from annotating pages, post and sites that have been captured it can be posted on its own. Making it somewhat Twitter-like ? Well, It does remind of Twitter.
