Keeping Contacts and RSS Feed Readers

Hey guys. I just realized this will be the 90th post here. Good job.

As we move on from BU, we're gonna read and post on this blog much less frequently. This is totally fine and natural. But what would be a shame is for this forum-disguised-as-a-blog to die completely, because it's the most convenient way for us to send little group shout outs and share links with our graduating class. Fortunately, there's a very easy way to prevent this from dieing, and keeping the outlet intact.

If you already use an RSS feed reader and subscribe to this blog (most of you I'll bet), then you don't really have to keep reading. If you don't use one of these, I'd really recommend it. You use it to subscribe to your favorite blogs and have the posts come to you rather than the other way around. Here's a list of reviews for the best RSS readers: http://lifehacker.com/390619/best-rss-newsreaders

So yeah, most of you already have this covered, but if you don't, it's how this outlet will stay alive (it's like getting emailed when someone posts here rather than going to the website regularly/randomly), and it's super convenient anyway.

I downloaded NetNewsWire, the Mac one mentioned in the article. Really nice interface, looks exactly like Mac Mail. I wonder why it took me so long to install a reader in the first place.
