extremely blog-like blog entry

playing with the new google-reader, mostly because i like rss readers in theory but they all seem to suck. in fact they're almost like mail clients (see the slogan for mutt). currently i use liferea, which seems to suck the least of the graphical unix ones. it does miss some things, like changing the titles of feeds (for example, i've just discovered that laura renamed her lj, but i have no idea when she did that). I've tried some command-line ones and they suck. the least-sucky of all of the one's i've tried so far has been sage, but that one is a firefox extension, and there are enough things about firefox that bother me. actually, most of them are probably fixable by extensions, but i just can't be bothered, and so will stick w/ galeon.

while on the subject of blog-related software, i wish there was a way for drivel to save drafts to blogger instead of to a local file on my computer.

i have to go to school for 4 days this week! shock and horror. tomorrow however will also be the annual interactive arts performance series concert which sounds pretty cool. last year it sucked (albeit it was a work in progress). in fact it sucked so much i sent an email to jeff complaining about how i had to sit through people standing on stage doing nothing while there were just wind sounds going on for 10 minutes. ugh.
