Oven-Fresh Blogging
Now, I'm a college student. That means that some days, I'll have time to go completely nuts on this blog, but then maybe I won't blog for another week. "Ahh!" my friends say, "you haven't blogged in forever! How am I supposed to procrastinate?" Even worse, Homestar Runner hasn't exactly been on a timely weekly schedule, either. So what can you do?
If you're using Firefox, you can syndicate this site (and any other blog you read) using the Live Bookmarks feature, or another RSS reader of your choice. Then instead of taking the time to type in "symphonicman.com", you can quickly scan through the live bookmark folders of all the blogs you read to see if I've written anything new. Faster than checking your email, and way more fun.
This is also the secret to ultra-fast comment response times.
Livejournal automatically has RSS feeds active. Xanga does, too, but as Moses points out, it has to be fixed by manually subscribing to http://www.mikexstudios.com/labs/XangaRssFixer.php?user=[xanga_username] instead (because Xanga's RSS is invalid).
