Time to hit up my feed subscription list to find some more goodies for you to enjoy. Today we are going to cover my subscriptions from P to S.
PimpMyDesk.org - One of my side hobbies (I guess that is what you could call it) is looking at and using some interesting an alternative wallapapers and icons out there to change up my computer’s look and feel.
Worthy Example Post? SnowRemixo -Wallpaper pack
ProBlogger.net - Another entry into the “duh!” list of feeds, I don’t know any writer (blogger or not) that couldn’t get something from reading ProBlogger.net. Definitely a daily read and highlight of my day for sure.
Worthy Example Post? How Bloggers Make Money from Blogs
Service Untitled - When it comes to customer relations, nobody knows better than Douglas Hanna. Ever since having him on my podcast back on episode 107 I have been reading his blog religiously.
Worthy Example Post? DreamHost Fiasco
Soft Tech Reviews - Another tech/news blog, Soft Tech Reviews is one that I stumbled upon by accident via somebody leaving a comment here. The content was captivating, the writing was superb so it made it’s way to my feed subscription list.

I’ve done weekly link lists on Firefox Facts for some time now, so I thought I’d give it a shot here as well - but with more web dev and hosting related talk.
Have an interesting link to share or pass my way? Leave a comment or drop me an e-mail at mitch@mitchkeeler.com and I’ll be more than happy to share it with the masses.

I was just clearing out some of my feeds that I am subscribed to - and thought now would be as good of a time as any to list some of my favorite feeds that I subscribe do.
Weblog Tool Collection - Loads of good Wordpress news, themes and plugins all in one spot. [RSS Feed]
Unclutterer - Unclutterer.com is a site on personal organization, simple living, and getting rid of clutter. [RSS Feed]
NoDQ.com - This is one of the many pro wrestling (WWE, TNA, MMA) news and rumor web sites out there. Doesn’t have a feed, so I created this one with FeedYes.com. [RSS Feed]
Lorelle on WordPress - Yet another good WordPress and just general writing tips blog that I get a lot of use and information out of. [RSS Feed]
Now back to deleting some of the feeds out of Google Reader I don’t like as much as the ones above.

Now historically I haven’t been a person that does a lot of “link blogging” because most of the time I scan over these entries just like you might be doing now. Personally I like the meat and potatoes! Side dishes only throw me off.
With that said, I am willing to give anything a shot at least once - so let the linkman cometh and bring his mighty linking pleasures to you all.
+ Chris is Breaking Up With Vista - Heck, I haven’t even gotten to meet her yet. Does make me feel a little better for not jumping off the deep end as soon as Vista came out.
+ 60 Reasons Why Web Hosts Suck - Number 14 has to be my favorite. Reason number 61 should be “because they don’t listen to the Web Hosting Show”.
+ Eric gets a good subdomain on tumblr. Maybe I should give that service a shot too?
+ Should you pod-vertise? Should I pod-vertise? I think it is awesome that “podcast-related advertising is set to quintuple over the next five years” but I am not going to count my chickens before they start laying eggs.
+ Send me your most wanted Firefox extensions, themes, services - anything and everything you want to get out of that little browser, make it known. I have been having fun answer some requests via Firefox Facts and I am getting ready to (within the next few days) to list some questions I couldn’t find answers for.

Sure, feed reading and RSS in general has gone a long way since the early days, but I do not think it is “there” yet. I was reading about the review of the current feed reading habits, and it does show promise.
I just can’t believe anything has caught on yet till my Mom thinks it is easy. Now she is “mid” tech savvy, and I think that is the world’s target with this stuff. When people outside of the tech sphere really find a good reason to use this stuff then we are all going to be doing a little ‘bit better.
Then again, when you mention Web 2.0, RSS, feeds or blogosphere to normal people, they still look at you like your crazy. We may have blogging Gods on the Web - but in normal life, they are just another loser with a habit that nobody understands.
