Monday, July 1

Farewell, Reader.

If you are part of the internet at all, you probably have heard that Google Reader is going away. Like, today. Big sad face. If you've been around long, you'll remember a few posts I've written on my true love, Google Reader. Shame on you, Google.

My current substitute is Feedly--I don't use many of the fancy aspects of Reader, so this fits the bill. (Basically, I read blogs, use it to wait for things I want on Craigslist and email Victoria things she's probably already read.) If you already use Reader, it takes barely any time to import your feeds in, and today is your last day to do it!  There's other suitable replacements (The Old Reader, AOL Reader, Bloglovin...) but I'm partial to a one stop shop for all my blogs. And it's green, which I'm loving these days.

And let me just say, if you regularly read more than 5 blogs, it's probably worth your time just to use a Reader. It's one place to go to see if any of your favorite sites have updated. And you can EASILY click over to comment and see the blogs in all their HTML glory.

That's all. Except that it's July which is the month this baby BETTER be born in. And that sends me into a bit of a panic. Ok, now that's all.

  1. I agree, Feedly is my sub as well. It's simple and not as cliquish as bloglovin'.

  2. You'll have the baby this month, your body knows what to do. My doctor freaked me out with the "no induction until 41 weeks" thing too. Apparently it is safer or something.

  3. SOMETIMES I haven't already read it. The 17-year-old airport worker next to me, eating Chinese food, is talking about how she had a check up for her baby girl this morning and discussed inducing at 36 weeks. WHAT THE HECK? One, I don't think you are old enough to have a baby. TWO, 36 weeks? Is that even legal in TEXAS? Didn't Rick Perry make that illegal yet?

    Getting back off my soapbox now.

  4. Preeclamspia? Interuterine growth restriction? Maybe there's a good medical reason...

    Good news--they were more favorable toward inducing me at 40 weeks today!

  5. Come to Wichita. My most wonderful OB induced me at 39 weeks. I'll love her forever.
    Also, I was all in for feedly but it has been buggy for me today. Boo.

    1. Ooh bugs? Probably because a million people signed up yesterday. I'm not sure I'll be ready at 39 weeks! Shooting for 40...
