I've switched over to using
Google Reader for my
RSS consumption. One of the nifty features is being able to share items and have them published as a feed and page for others to look at. If you look on the right side of the page you'll see the last 5 things I've marked to share.
Hmmm, I posted a HILARIOUS comment about the Big Lebowski phonetic alphabet that blogger decided not to post... Anyway, thanks to wikipedia, I feel justified in my stance that so-called "phonetic alphabets" are not actually phonetic -- a better term would be a "acrophonic alphabet" or "spelling alphabet" -- they're called phonetic because they're voiced (as opposed to morse code transmissions), which makes "phonetic" a total misnomer.
