Currently Reading: Goblin Quest, Goblin Hero, and Goblin War

Just a quick note about Jig. Jig is an accidentally brave little (okay runtish) goblin who over the course of his three books so far has had to deal with dragons, necromancers, pixies (multiple times!), and multiple gods! This is a smart, funny fantasy series that still feels fresh three books in. Highly recommended for snarky teens, adults, and fantasy aficionados throughout the kingdom.

Bloglines

So as per my next exercise I sign up for bloglines. I haven't signed up for this many online services in this short a time period since... ever! I am sometimes a little skeptical of adopting every new online service. I like to keep abreast of what is out there, but I usually wait to sign up for things until there is a little more polish in place, unlike my friend Boz, who is a huge early adopter. He flicks, he tweets, he tumbls--he's the real things ladies and gentlemen.

In any case, regarding RSS and bloglines I created a public blogroll, which I need to show Sara, I know she's going to love Pop Goes the Library. It seems like there are some interesting things to learn out there and RSS should make it much more manageable to attempt to keep up with all this bleeding edge information.

I usually try to manage this by creating a heavily weeded collection of links in my favorites (If I haven't loved it in a month it goes!). I'm interested to see what del.icio.us is about, as this seems like it would be really up my alley. I think that's coming up in a future week.
