I don’t usually like to talk about topics that aren’t related to Japan. I also am not fond of whoring software on my blog. I will make an exception in this case as I have come across an indispensable tool that I would recommend to anyone(even my worst enemy) who is traveling in Japan.
Are you a blog hound? Do you continuously check technology sites and news pages? Well, I found a great, and free tool that allows you to concentrate them all in one place; letting you check them all at the same time. For those of you who are familiar with RSS readers, you know exactly what I’m talking about. This site however, takes RSS to new and crazy levels. You see, Bloglines is all web based. So if you happen to be a JET such as myself, you’ll be able to check all the pages that you usually check without having to remember all of them. This can make a quick visit to the Internet cafe a very efficient experience. I can get all my Slashdot, Space, Gizmodo and BBC article all in one place. It even keeps track of what articles you have and haven’t read yet. In one word, it is simply amazing. But don’t take my word for it. check it out here:
I was never a fan of RSS. It always required me to haul my laptop around. Well, that is no longer necessary. Now you can take control of those vast sums of useless information that you enjoy reading every day.
