Google Reader is Shutting Down

The beloved Google Reader is sunsetting this 31st of July 2013.


We have just announced on the Official Google Blog that we will soon retire Google Reader (the actual date is July 1, 2013). We know Reader has a devoted following who will be very sad to see it go. We’re sad too.
There are two simple reasons for this: usage of Google Reader has declined, and as a company we’re pouring all of our energy into fewer products. We think that kind of focus will make for a better user experience.


Now what? I'm looking for better alternatives on how to manage my RSS. Checked out Lifehacker's post, +Whitson Gordon is recommending:
-Netvibes
-NewsBlur
-Feedly

I'm digging in to Feedly since i had the iPhone app but it's still tagged as new and hasn't been tried out. In the back of my head, i'm thinking of using the Outlook built-in RSS, might be tinkering some settings later on the Outlook2010.

Because of this:


Now what?

PS: the image was taken by my iPhone3Gs ... and it's hell of grainy.

Addicted to Digg

Have i mentioned that i'm a huge fan of Digg? the iPhone app of course.
Sad to say, the app just had its recent update, and now it's showing ads.

Prolly, back in 2012's fourth quarter that i have started using this great app- a source of the freshest news around the world wide web.

Did i mention too that my iPhone 5 is currently in the service center? - Battery is draining easily fast. Good thing the rep named Lynn was a great help, she has absolutely satisfied me the way she handled my case and frustration. Have i mentioned too that the service provider is Globe Telecoms?

This One's for You!

To breathe the air of careless thoughts
Freedom denounces further laws
Verbose-like smiles to draw the tamed fierceness
Forever marked in the recesses of memory

Advances to decrypt the mystery
Nowhere but hear the symphony
Of the music endlessly repeating
Like the waves that forever sprawling

Missing like no other part can replace
'twas like the shying of the moon
Behind the clouds as it drapes to blackness
Into the silence of a windless night
Beyond...
Beyond the everlast
