Before, what I usually do is open all my bookmarked news sites just to check on the latest web news, not today.. I just found out that FeedDemon 2.6- one of the most popular RSS Reader for Windows is now FREE!
It was January 9 when NewsGator announced that FeedDemon 2.6 and NetNewsWire 3.1 will be available free of charge and will include free synchronization along with other services. NetNewsWire is their RSS Reader for the Macintosh system. NewsGator also announced that users can synchronize to provide the same view of their RSS content no matter where or when they read it.
Of course I could have tried other free readers out there like the somewhat controversial(?) Google Reader. But I don't know, I think I was too lazy to try it that time. ^_^
Other than FeedDemon and NetNewsWire, Newsgator Inbox and Newsgator Go! will also be available for free. NewsGator Inbox gives you the ability to track and manage all of your RSS content within Microsoft Outlook, while NewsGator Go lets you track and manage all your RSS content on your Blackberry, Windows Mobile device, Java Mobile Smartphone or Java PDA.
As of now I'm still putting all my fave news sites to my reader- from CNN to CNET.. from TechCrunch to TechDirt. I'm loving it! No more 15 tabbed sites open at the same time on my Firefox browser, they are now well arranged and updated on my FeedDemon reader. If you haven't tried it you check it out on their website.

Widgetbucks at last!
Finally got an email this morning from Widgetbucks accepting my application.. w00t! w00t!
Alright.. yes, I know it's late.. and yes, I know it doesn't anymore pay clicks coming from our native land Philippines, just like our other 3rd world neighbors.. but hey, at least I tried ^_^
Entrecard can be quite addictive..
I first read about Entrecard on BlogComics, then Marhgil also joined and wrote an article about it. Seems like a lot of pinoy bloggers are already signing up and dropping their cards like crazy. Learning that this is a new and effective way of driving the needed traffic to my blog, I decided to join in.
Indeed there's a lot of interesting sites listed, just by viewing the Campaign tab I'm sure this will consume a lot of my time. Blogs are arranged to 40 categories.. from arts, to celebrities, humor, technology, politics, pets, religion, sports etc. I placed mine under Computers and Internet, I don't know if it's the right niche coz I'm also thinking of putting this blog under News and Media, Technology, and Pets. How about 'Self Improvement?' :)
I also checked those who have just recently joined, and guess who's next to me? Touched by an Angel! And the credits needed to advertise on her? just 2 credits (or was it 3?) Eniweys I advertised on her blog, all I have to do now is wait and hope that she'll notice and help a struggling noob like me ^_^
Okay, that's it.. I have to stop for now.. must take a break.. it's already past 9.. haven't eaten dinner yet.. must log out.. this is really getting quite addictive. So if you have a blog and haven't joined Entrecard yet, sign up now. It's FREE advertising, what's not to like in it?

My late(?) participation to Auction.ph's eMoney giveaway contest
Just passed by Yuga's blog and saw that only few participated on one of their raffles so they have to extend it until December 26. I was hesitant to join first since this blog is just new.. but they still need a couple of participating bloggers, so I decided to post an article about this contest.
The promo is called "The Php15,000 e-Money Giveaway" from Yugatech and Auction.ph there are three ways to win the contest and you can win Php300 worth of eMoney on each of them:
The second and third raffles are already finished and winners were already picked. So if you're like me who wanted to get some eMoney this holiday, you can still participate in the first raffle (Spread the word). Just like what the old folks used to say, "Huli man daw at magaling.. huli pa rin." (",)

catching up
It's been awhile now since i last posted on my first blog. I've been busy changing the scripts and modifying the layouts of my main bread and butter. And now that they're finished and running I decided to get back and try my luck on blogging once again.
If before I'm running the site from a computer rental/internet cafe, now I'm able to update it through my "newly-bought-second-hand-slightly-used-but-still-looks- newly-bought" Samsung Sens P29 laptop.. so expect frequent posts on this blog. I'm using an LG KU250 (cheap 3G) to connect to the internet and so far it's doing fine.. besides I don't really need a super fast connection right now, just enough so that I can update my sites and that i can watch some wrestling videos on YouTube.
I still have a lot of catching up to do, reviews here, internet news there, latest tech stuff here, attach some widgets there, adsense here, <*ehem*> adsense there. Time to fill this site up, and time to start subscribing to Shakedown 2.0 now :)
