If you've been thinking about XM/Sirius radio for your car or home, now is the time to try it out. Call now and ask about their 5 months for $20 promotion. There is no start-up fee. Just be sure to call them back and cancel or re-negotiate a new price before the 5 months is up. Here's the number - 1-800-998-7900.
In a previous post I recommended Google Reader. Google Reader used to be just an online RSS reader. You'd subscribe by copying and pasting a site's RSS feed URL into Google Reader's "Add a subscription" box. And you still can. But starting yesterday, you can add any URL - even if it's not an RSS feed, and even if the site itself doesn't publish an RSS feed. If Google Reader doesn't recognize a URL as RSS, a dialog box will offer to "create a feed for you." Just click "Create a feed," and now Google Reader will monitor the page. If the page changes, a link to that page will show up in Google Reader as if a new RSS item had been posted. They'll even show you a preview "snippet" of the page, just as they do with real RSS posts. This is great news for people who use Google Reader, and a real incentive for those who don't to start.
