Social Networks, a data hassle.

More now then ever I encounter pages like this (see below) which require me to put in my username or ID login (not my password). However, I have a ton of user names. What’s an online active person to do? Well, if I had the time, I’d create an online data repository web site that would allow me to fill out 1 profile covering all my essential info. That would eliminate me filling this in on every site and filling these out everytime I go or join a new community. I’d just point that new site to my data file and upload. ~b.

FeedDemon is now FREE!

The best desktop client for reading and subscribing to RSS feeds just became free (imho). Newsgator, the creator of the software used to charge a one-time $ 29.95 fee to use it permanently (after your 30 day trial). FeedDemon feeddemon.jpg is for both Mac’s and windows and provides the user with a nice initial assortment of feeds to start. Or you can export your feeds into an .opml file from your current reader and import that file into FeedDemon. It has many cool features and is VERY easy to use, even for beginners. Props to Newsgator for giving it up~!
