It is not that I like Halloween or I celebrate it. FYI, I don’t celebrate it. It is just I want to say and post something. Haven’t been reading my RSS feeds for 4 days now and it is packed with 1997 articles so far. I have to read them all in Sunday because I have an exam tomorrow and another in Saturday and more in Sunday. I also have to submit E-Learning homework on Saturday which will take very long time to write. I wonder how I’ll study for Sunday’s subject. Anyway, my estimation of number of feed articles will be waiting for me on Sunday around 3500 to 4000 feeds to read since my feeds produces on average 500 articles per day and half of that on weekends.
By chance 1997 is the year I start diving in the world of I.T. and programming. Such nice days when I was an 11 years old kid surfing web pages when GIFs animations fills web pages all over the web.
After thinking for few days, I finally decided to use Google Read to read my subscribed feeds. I was using IE7 to read feeds but I’m facing some problems reading my feeds anywhere I want. I had to get my laptop and open it even though my college is full of computer labs with high speed internet access. I was surprised on the number of feeds I’m registered on. 183 wow… I didn’t know I was subscribed on more than 50 feeds!! Those are the feeds I read every day!

Tired of rush hour traffic? Are you wasting your time going to work and coming back home? I personally hate traffic and I try my best avoiding them. Sometimes I leave home 1.5hours before lecture starts, although it only takes 15min to get to college when there is no traffic. Traffic is a big problem for many cities around the globe. BUT there is a solution! USE YOUR HORN!
