Ok, so I admit I’ve been slacking on my blog posting lately. I’ve been busy with work, Ductape and just generally trying to keep my sanity from straying too far from its current point. Anyway, I figured that I might as well share a few of the more interesting things I’ve seen on the net lately. Before you ask how I find this stuff, I’ll tell you that I have 184 blogs and news feeds that I monitor via Google Reader. Yes I am nuts. I don’t read every item, but according to the stats, I have ready over 5000 items in the last 30 days. Anyway, on to the fun.
