Google'y Eyes

My sister blogs.  What I really mean is that she has a blog.  I used to check it.  Over.  And over.  And over.  But I found myself rolling my eyes & saying, "Sheesh!" when the page would load... only for me to find the same post I saw before (& before that...and before that).

'Til I got google reader.  Now, Tightwad Sister's post is only going to load if it's a new one I haven't seen.

Do you ever have a day where you check Tightwad Momma five billion times from work, only to see that it must've been a busy day @ the Tightwad House & Tightwad Momma hasn't updated the site since the Cornbread Shout Out?

Frustration no more.  Now you can subscribe to Tightwad Momma (& any of your other favorites) & go to just one place (like google).  Once you sign in, the 'new' posts of your favorite (subscribed) sites/blogs will pop up as new.

Easy as that.

What is an RSS?...What do I mean by Google Reader?

It'd be best explained by going HERE & letting someone who can explain it better, enlighten you on the way that I keep up with blogs & sites.

Email Address

I suggested this long ago, but we have so many new readers, I wanted to be sure this tip was passed along.

Want to avoid gobs of spam in your inbox?  You're bound to get the spam, the soliciation, the ads, when you're signing up for free offers.

So, years ago, I created a pseudo email addy.  It's a yahoo email address that I use for just those reasons.

I highly suggest it...

Just go to yahoo, ymail, gmail, etc., & create one.  Write down all your info -- it's easy to forget when it's not an account you check on a regular basis.

Then, when you're registering to be a user on a site; or when you're signing up for an offer, use that alternative email.

I check mine about 2x each week.  And usually have hundreds to go through.

BUT,

there's no spam in my regular inbox!
